so during the summer i went to America to work in a summer camp and haven't looked back since.
The camp was called Camp Greentop and it must be the best camp in America as i genuinely had the best three months of my life.
the camp is situated in Maryland and is on top of a mountain and although the camp is situated in the middle of nowhere i would live there in a flash providing my favourite people at camp were there to share it with me.
i wasn't sure if i would be able to adapt with the living conditions when i was first there as i am not the type of guy you would see living in cabins and sharing showers and toilets, but as the summer progressed i fell in love with the living conditions and wouldn't have swapped it for a five star hotel.
the work was hard at times but so rewarding and when you have a cabin leader like Declan it makes life a whole lot easier,that guy who i flew over with made my summer extra special and got me through the hard times and also made me laugh ALOT.
how could i do a blog about greentop without mentioning Sexy Shower Time,which was the talk of camp basically a few of us guys who at first were edgy about sharing communal showers decided to make shower time sexy by doing it together(naked) and adding music. My most frequent shower partner was Steve Bailey and even when we were in different units we showered together.Mike Lawrey another close friend was banned from it as his muscles were too big.
Greentop is run by the legend that is Bill Morgan but he could not do it without the help of the amazing Carmichael sisters who tolerated me constantly being in the office all summer, even when i wasn't meant to be.
i have made so many good friends there,too many to mention and since camp finished i have tried to keep in touch with as many as possible, i am at the same university as Jennie so that is easy and i have seen good friends such as Anna, Declan and Mike and not to forget Paddy on a night out and the rest i keep in touch via facebook.
i was so Happy the other day as i got mail from a close friend from camp Bridget she sent me a postcard which really cheered me up,she was definitely one of my favourite people at camp.
and the best part is they have let me go back to winter camp,even after acting like an idiot on the last night of camp and stupidly getting drunk,won't be doing that again. so i get to see some of my old favourites at winter such as Emily,Aaron,Bridget and Mike lawrey and basically i cannot wait.
i wish more of my favourites such as Declan, Steve, Sally,Anna and Paddy were doing camp but i am sure i will see all of them very soon
miss you camp greentop!!!!!!!!!!

Hey man - glad I came across this blog. (I've been trying to find some info on this camp.) Sounds like a fun place! I'm thinking of heading there with some friends this summer. I have a quick question: I was wondering what you mean by "communal showers." Are they the kind that are open, with no dividers/curtains? I'm a little shy and would be nervous about my buddies seeing me nekkid. Also - we're looking into the cama nearby called "camp round meadow." Heard anything good/bad about that one? Thanks!
