Very Strange Question

Specialties Camp

Published

So I am spending my first summer as camp nurse at a small camp in Highlands, NC. I recently also picked up embroidery and have been doing a lot of it this past week while we are waiting for the campers to get here. I want to decorate my walls with embroidery and would like to get opinions on some things I could embroider that are 'nurse-like'.

I already have in the makes:

1. Drink water

2. Eat your fruits and veggies

3. Safety first

4. Some inspirational quotes

Any other fun ideas?

I am at an NC camp right now and I wish I had time to make cute signs for the wall. In almost 2 weeks here, I have only had one night without an overnight sick camper. These are sickly campers this year, counselors too! Take some vitamins people!!

I just got home from a week of youth camp (gr 5 thru grad. from high school) - we were straight out too and I wanted to say the same thing: "Take your vitamins, people!" (but more like, "stay the heck away from my cabin!" lol...)
