Just came home from our local regional burn. It was the 3rd edition! I’ve had the craziest experiences this past week. I seriously feel like I’ve came back a different person. With lots of insane new friends.

While we were unpacking the trailer yesterday, I really felt like something « clicked ». That I’m getting good at this. We unpacked efficiently, I was directing 2 people that were helping me and it was fast and organized. After a full week of barely any sleep.

What I’m not doing next year is inviting a bunch of people that have never been to a burn to our camp because they want to check it out. This year, most of our camp were new. Some people stepped up, some helped but lacked initiative, some didn’t help much at all. Me and my boyfriend organized most of it, and we did deliver on our camp's brunch food gift. It was good but not great.

I’ve seen awesome camps in action now, and if I’m organizing something again - I want only power players on my team. To have something epic.
