Pvt Dino Perry "Scooter" mi -"rim 1 1 jf "' . 'h Thank you for helping me have fun at Camp Meadowood. I went canoeing. I made new friends. I had fun canoeing with Trer, a counselor. We went in the lake. The lake was dirty and we didn't fall in it. The counselors, Trei and Raven, took us fishing at the lake. I didn't catch any fish but I had fun. Some other campers caught two fish. I made new friends, Mosquito, Butterfly and Indiana Jones. We played soccer, volleyball and we went swimming. I like my friends. They are fun. My favorite thing to do at Camp Meadowood was going swimming. We swam in a big swimming pool everyday. Thank you for sending me to Camp Meadowood last summer. I had so much fun. I would really love to go back another time.
