Fish Camp Chairs Upset Counselors are Totally Lame

Newly selected Fish Camp counselors met their co-chairs and fellow counselors this Wednesday as part of the annual “Rev night.” Controversy struck Thursday, however, when multiple co-chairs expressed concern about their counselors’ abilities to contribute to their camp’s social status.

“How can I tell if they’re cool? This isn’t fair at all,” said co-chair Andrew Husted while frantically refreshing his follower notifications on Instagram. “None of them were even in a FLO, and I still don’t know six of my counselors’ camp histories.” Husted spent the next hour browsing his counselors’ Instagrams and bemoaning the fact that their posts are “just them and their families… no orgs or parties or anything.”

Co-chair Hilda Richardson expressed similar dissatisfaction with her counselors. “They’re all lame,” Richardson said. “I met most of my girl counselors while holding interviews for my women’s org. For some of them, though, I had to actually go off their application. Can you believe the only thing some of them are involved in is TradCo?”  

Both co-chairs worry about having the best camp Instagram and whether their apparel will be properly represented by their counselors. Offering a bit of hope, Husted said, “Our camp’s vision is diversity, so I think we can make them fit into the mold that we expect for our counselors and for our camp as a whole.”
