Day 8

Wow, things are definitely starting to pick up in Little Leaf . . . This morning we sang several new songs, as well as our beloved Cheese Song. We dusted off Baby Shark, Pirate Song, and Tin Soldier as well. The plan of the day today was very generic looking, but as we know, anything can happen during Anarchy Block formerly known as Work Block.

(Thank you so much parents for waiting with your kids at the church until we arrive! It's so helpful!)

Missing Peep Posters

MANAGER PRODUCTIVITY MEETING

Our first work block consisted of even more lumber orders trickling into the Sheep Shed ready for construction, some new businesses opening, and a whole lot of oligarchical shenanigans. We heard our first public apology from a politician today, Morgan, as she went on the record saying "I apologize for throwing paper at people, I did not mean it, so . . . yeah . . .". It's tough being in charge. At the same time, a petition was going around to remove Morgan as manager of the Radio Station. This movement has fallen on its face so far.

THEN a very scary and foreshadowing announcement was made by Johnny Darke. "Anyone caught organizing or participating in a revolt will be arrested". This appears to be the oligarchs' way of trying to maintain law and order within Little Leaf.

Snack came, and swimming came with a nice long swim across the pond, and lunch was generously extended in order to fully enjoy the weather and each other.

The second work block was very exciting as well! We had our first fugitive, Connor, being tracked down by hired muscle (presumably hired by Morgan and Johnny Darke). Connor has been actively protesting the oligarchy in fears of an overreach of their power, he has instead advocated theocracy, where we would all follow the law handed down by a spirit or deity (Jambi?!). He is safe, for now.

Following work block we headed to the town center to observe and salute our official town flag, as well as meet two new Peeps made by some visitors to camp! One was a Formula One driver who suffered a severe accident that left him without an arm or leg. He has dedicated his life and his robotic prosthetics to catching the man responsible for his accident. The second Peep is a mysterious and powerful Native American Peep shaman. Gunther has already sought his expertise in dark magic.

CTF today was excellent. Our last round was Knees-Only. Exactly how it sounds. It is amazing how much better we are all getting at solving our disputes sans-referees. Between Rock/Paper/Scissors and simple honesty, our CTF has become much more communal!
