Doodly Do It!

by Amy Miller

Do you recall the day your parents cheerfully announced, "Honey, we've packed your bags. The station wagon's loaded. You're going to camp!" Now think back. Do you remember that sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach as you found yourself fighting back sobs in the Chrysler's exhaust fumes? "What if no one likes me?" Then something magical happened. Maybe it was the early morning swim lessons when we thrust our chubby bodies into the frigid waters of the lake. Maybe it was our first overnighter. Maybe the S'Mores. Whatever it was, at camp we made our own mistakes. No parents were allowed. We stumbled. We fell. And in the process we learned the skills necessary to rise to any occasion. DOODLY DO IT ! is a collection of quirky camp stories told with humor, edge, attitude, and inspiration. A celebration of the life lessons we learned at this great American cultural coming-of-age ritual we fondly call.CAMP.
