The Slip and Slide
I went to Easton Sunshine Day Camp, it may of been the worst camp I’ve ever went to.
A strange, long and a bit over dramatic name. The camp was down the road from my
house, me and my mom always biked there. Once, she dropped me off,we locked up my
bike with my bike lock, she took my helmet and then she left. If I needed to, I could walk
home, although they obviously wouldn’t let me walk home, let alone by myself. Next to
the camp was a road which was beautifully covered above by pine trees. Across it
was “The Bluebird”, which is a old fashioned breakfast and lunch diner and served hot
buttery pancakes and crispy bacon that you could smell from across the street, which
looked like a two headed snake. Granted, it was across the street. But the camp was
dirty, Especially the lake. We couldn’t swim in the lake because of the snapping turtles,
water snakes, leeches, pollution, and who knows what mutated fish. But one of the worst
parts of the camp, in opinion,was “The Slip And Slide”.

Every Tuesday in the camp, the camp staff brought out the slip and slide. Before that,
they used blow up water slides, which were better.”Line Up!” They yelled. I was
scared that I would go to fast on the slip and slide and fly over the pool at the end into
the grass, luckily, It never happened. I had a small flashback to when I went on of the
water slide before I went on the slip and slide for the first time.It was of me sliding
down the slide, a blue slide, very vague but very interesting. I also remember one of
one of the water slides, which makes me wonder if I saw it, or if I just made the image
up in my head. The image was to perfect to be real.

I’ve only ever tried the slip and slide for one day, a couple of times, but I can tell you
it was the worst! I had a put on my bathing suit and the staff led me and my group to
the slip and slide with the other age groups. Waiting in line is like a ticking bomb
without the bomb showing you when it will explode with a conveniently placed timer on
the front of it . Tick, Tick Tick. This is because I didn’t know how long it would take to
my turn, not long. The slip and slide was a racing game where there were 2 lines and
the 2 people in front of the line would charge onto it on there stomach like a penguin,
and slide into the dirty pool at the end. The pool at the end was themed ocean with
rainbow fish.”It was the best slip and slide”. I could never make it to the end of the
slip and slide.

The first time I was going on the slip and slide, we lined up and were given the queue
to go,but I could never make it to the end on the slip and slide, into the pool at the
end. That’s when I figured out it was cold, and dirty. I’ll never go on it again, at least I
gave it a chance.
