And then there came the speech. It was a bit long and very boring, but for new campers it was also very informative. The worst thing about it was that there were some words that I didn't understand.
"Hello boys and girls! Welcome to another wonderful and unforgettable summer at Camp Pineland. I have no doubt that each and everyone of you will make us proud this year.
I am aware that this year we've got a lot of young adults from all over the world. So let me fill you in on some very important camp information. Pineland was founded in 1950. Our camp has been a proud member of the American Camp Association for over 40 years. Tradition is what we value most of all. Many of the campers' parents used to be Pineland campers themselves. Some of our camp songs have been a tradition for nearly 60 years.
Pineland consists of 40 cabins. Each of the cabins is designed for five campers and one counsellor. Notice that there is no electricity in your cabins. We believe that campfires and flashlights will make your camp adventure even more exciting. Our small cabins are a part of the camp's philosophy. Each summer a cabin becomes a new family under the supervision of a counsellor who helps the campers start lifelong friendships. Boys' and girls' cabins are located on different sides of the camp. I'd like to warn our senior campers that regular inspections will be carried out to make sure that nobody goes out for romantic walks in the darkness.
Camp Pineland is located in a unique and beautiful place. Just look around you, campers, and you'll be amazed by the breathtaking beauty of the mountains, the coolness of the lake and the freshness of the air. However, be reminded that the lake is out of bounds for everybody without a counsellor and anybody caught there alone will be sent straight back home. As usual, this summer you'll have a chance to hike in the mountains. I do hope that each and every one of you will work hard to prepare yourselves for this challenging activity.
I would like to draw your attention to the fact that Camp Pineland is in the Sierra Nevada which means that black bears still live here. So I am personally going to teach the campers some safety rules. My safety classes are every Monday and Friday at 11 a.m.
Camp Pineland's administration has always had traditional camp values. However, we also know how this wonderful tradition is misunderstood by some of the campers.
We are proud to inform you that we understand how much fun it is for a camper to receive a box of cookies or sweets from home. For example, some of the new camps don't allow parents to send any food or snacks to their children. So be aware that I am personally going to collect all your parcels and make sure that only healthy snacks in safe quantities are given to you on special occasions.
Your days at camp will be busy and structured and I hope that as always
this summer we'll see a lot of personal growth."

As soon as the Crunch finished, the campers started moving impatiently. It was time for the cookout and nobody wanted to wait any longer. And then I saw Dima. He was talking to some other boys, using gestures when he didn't know the right word. His new friends seemed to understand him really well. Dima noticed me and gave me a big smile. He was obviously enjoying the camp more than I was.
