Director’s Reports

Of course, tennis ball evasion had loads of takers…

and Sam emerged as our number one archeological snooper.

The girls from Wa-Klo came up for a cookout/dance. Spany showed up in appropriate attire, to the amusement of our guests.

Finn and Jacob, the birthday tsars, pulled double duty in both celebrating two birthdays…

and inviting the birthday lads to have the first dance of the evening.

The reactions to the lamb shank offering were quite varied — normal for Alex…

to a bit more amazing to Langston…

to completely bonkers as Christian saw it.

The final PGB night hoops festival drew a big crowd, as always.

Then Bow & Arrow started. You can always tell by the back rubs being given the the neutrals…

and to one another, that this is a special Kingswood time of the summer.

The Arrows appeared to have the competition well in hand by Wednesday evening’s Songfest. Here a few neutrals take their seats before the performance.

While some might think such somber faces reveals “bad camp,” I love this very specific moment when the two teams first enter the dining room. We neutrals insist on total silence and the looks on those boys’ eyes to me are precious indicators of the so-called human side of life.

At this moment, the Bows trailed in the score by a lot. But, the next day, they won all three Apache Relays, worth 25 point each, and snatched the title away from the Arrows.

B & A ended Thursday afternoon. By nightfall, we were on to to other things. The concert/raffle event was held on Pines Field on the new stage called “The Theater in the Pines” …

constructed by Dan, who, rightfully, sang the first song (extremely well) at our spanking new venue.

And, by the time that Ian had finished his piano solo and Will had led a nice guitar jam with the pros, Bow & Arrow outcomes had completely given way to the sad feeling that summer 2015 truly was nearly over.
We will put together a “Finishing Touches” Blues Buster soon, in a future report.
