Re: color war
one summer in sleepaway when I was a counselor (we knew CW was about to break, of course), a camp play was about to be presented. All of a sudden, we heard arguing from behind the curtain, and it was getting louder and louder. Two counselors were shouting at each other and came from behind the curtain angrily. i forget what they were actually saying, but it was clear they were having a heated argument over something related to the play. The campers were listening to this eyes agog and mouths open! Finally one of the two arguers shouted, “There is only one way to resolve this problem!” They then jerked open the curtains and a HUGE sign saying “COLOR WAR” was the backdrop. pandemonium broke out, and it was wonderful. The kids really got into the spirit of it right away.
