Oliver Moody really got into frisbee last summer at camp, so much so that when his  family went on vacation to Wisconsin after camp he brought his beloved Pok-O frisbee with him. Unfortunately, though, Oliver lost the frisbee on an errant throw into Lake Michigan, and that was the end of that frisbee. Until three months later, when Don McMullen, a friend of Pok-O director Sharp Swan, was walking along the Chicago shoreline and spotted a frisbee floating in the water. Picking it up he recognized the camp insignia and sent it in the mail to Sharp, who, seeing Oliver’s name on the disc, mailed it along to Oliver with a note explaining its amazing journey and discovery. Oliver says, “I was really surprised that it came back to me, and very happy.” Oliver has graciously donated the frisbee and its story to the camp archives, where it will become a part of camp tradition and lore. |
Many campers and counselors are abuzz over tonight’s release of the seventh and final Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. As per tradition, boys Headmaster and noted Potterologist Erik Zimmerman will make the midnight journey to the Plattsburgh bookstore to pick up the 25 or so copies of the book that have been ordered by campers and staff. Zim has also addressed the two camps as to the importance of not revealing plot details to others; as he pointed out, “not just with Harry but with real life, don’t spoil things for others---let them experience life for themselves.” Dedicated readers will be able to take full advantage of one of tomorrow morning’s clubs: the Harry Potter Reading Hour. And as to the question of who will live and who will die? Well, you’ll have to read it for yourself.
