So after eight weeks of day camp my eight middle school boys in my huddle group the "Swagg Surfers" was winnowed down to three on the last day of camp. The last day was bittersweet because of this. Sweet because I so appreciated the three boys who stuck with me to the end. Bitter because of the five that left my group either because of discipline issues or because they were transfered to another group. Looking back on it I wonder if there was anything more I could have done to help make my boys into more of a team. In the end I just have to accept I did the best I could and hope that something I taught will stick with all my boys.....even those who did not make it to the very end of camp.
