One of the great joys of my life is the time I spent as a camper and then as a camp counselor at Girl Scout Summer Resident Camps in Michigan and Ohio.

Over the years I accumulated a collection of songs - sentimental songs, funny songs, rounds, nonsensical songs, spiritual songs, international songs, special songs made up as part of staff introduction skits and more. I kept them all in a thick spiral notebook with the Michigan state University emblem on the green cover. It is amongst my personal treasures.
I decided to record some of my favorite songs recently, and tested the idea out on Facebook - on a page started for alumni of G.S. Camp Narrin, in Ortonville Michigan. Although the camp is no longer (sold for a sub-development that never materialized) there is an amazing group of women and men who share their fond memories on that FB page.
I offer these songs with love and in Sisterhood.
