Award

I was a counselor (girls period) at Phantom

Lake Y Camp I took my goat, still a kid.

The campers all joined the “Rocky Club” 

to keep Rocky out of trouble. They could

not keep her from skidding out onto the 

dock during swimming, sometimes

even falling in! The last night of camp

when all the awards were given her name

was called and she received “Minnow”

status while everyone cheered. She then

chewed up the paper and swallowed it!
