Janis's Campfire Reflection

For Anderson Clover Guides Campfire 2009, the theme was "Bon Voyage-journey around the world". I found that it was a very creative theme as ideas on preparing the campfire that were related to travelling came easily. Work was divided by patrols and mine patrol was in charge of the preparations of the fire. We finished our work quite early, leaving much time before the campfire, so we went around helping other patrols with other work. Little amount of patrols needed our help at the beginning, but as the campfire drew closer, there was a rush in almost all the work, help was needed here and there, all were busy. Despite the fact, the campfire ended out to be completely awesome and everyone were very satisfied. It went on smoothly other than the fact that the tape, securing the wire, that was connected to light the campfire, to the ground kept detaching itself from the ground as some people stepped on them, with some even tripping on them. I had gained much experience from this year's campfire as it was my first time preparing for one and all the seniors were patient and kind with us, secondary ones.
