Week One:
July 5 – Meet at Youth Forum Office at 10am to load truck and caravan down to Gustavus. The rest of Sunday will be spent on projects, checking in, unloading the trailer, more projects, hanging out, more projects, and having our first real staff meeting.
July 6 – If you couldn’t make it early, please be to Gustavus by 10 am to check into
your room. The students come anytime between 12:30 and 3:30, (that includes
early and late arrivals) and we need your help to prepare for this time!
July 11 – Camp ends around 12:30 pm, and this week we will really need all the help
we can get with packing and cleaning. Please plan to stay as long as you can for that afternoon. Big projects will include tear down of sound equipment, clean up of camp store and the loading of the truck. Also, those that can stop at the office on the way back would be a huge help with unloading the truck back in Eagan.

I feel so helpless now, my guitar is not around
and i’m struggling with the xylophone to make these feelins sound
and i’m remembering you singing and bringing you to life
It’s raining out the window and today it looks like night
You haven’t written to me in a week im wondering why that is
are you too nervous to be lovers– friendships ruined with just one kiss kiss
I watched you very closely and i saw you look away
your eyes are either gray or blue i’m never close enough to say
But your sweatshirt says it all with the hood over your face
I can’t keep staring at your mouth without wondering how it tastes
I’m with another boy (he’s asleep, i’m wide awake )
and he tried to win my heart, but it’s taken . . . . . time
I know the shape of your hands because i watch it when you talk
and i know the shape of your body cause i watch it when you walk
and i want to know it all but i’m giving you the lead . . . . .. . .. .
So go on, go on and take it, don’t fake it, shake it
(charmin//crazy eyes have you are they gray or blue/i wont make the move/you must make the move/if you make the move/i will then approve/if you do not move/we will surely lose)
Don’t second guess your feelings you were right form the start
and i notice she’s your lover, but she’s nowhere near your heart
This city is for strangers, like the sky is for the stars
But i think it’s very dangerous if we do not take what’s ours
And i’m winning you with words because i have no other way
I want to look into your face without your eyes turning away
Last night i watched you sing because a person has to try
And i walked home in the rain because a person can not lie
