By Hannah S. age 13

Skipper is an Assistant Tribe Leader (ATL) at Camp Gilgal. This is Skipper’s first year being an ATL. She is in a tribe with the little girls’ cabin along with Olive. The first question I asked her was how she likes camp so far. Skipper replied that her first year as a tribe leader was a lot of fun. Next, I asked her who is her favorite camper, and she responded by saying that it was a tie between all of them. Next I asked her what her favorite activity is. Skipper said that she really enjoys all camp activities, especially capture the degel. My next question was regarding the stairs of doom. Skipper said she doesn’t like walking up the stairs, she said “there are 86 too many!” I asked Skipper what she likes to do on her break, and she answered by saying that she likes to go to the store, buy some ice cream, relax, and read her Bible. Another question I had was who was her friend at camp. Being a good person, Skipper said that everyone is her friend. She also told me that was sixteen years old and doesn’t have a favorite tribe leader. I also asked her where she got her camp name. She said “when I was little I used to watch Gilligan’s Island, and one of my favorite characters was skipper. Lastly, I asked her what was her favorite story of the Bible. Skipper said that she enjoyed learning about Esther and how she saved the Jewish people.
