What an AWESOME time I had this year!!!! But what a surprise, since I have a great time every year I’ve gone.
Something that was different for me this year than previous years was that I wasn’t a main instructor, meaning I had very few responsibilities. I can’t begin to tell you how awesome that is!! [...]
