Jessica Meets Umphrey’s McGee!

summercamp volunteer
Hey Summer Campers!

So my best volunteer memory is from 2010 my first year at camp. For my first shift my friend and I were assigned to hang out by the red barn and check people’s passes as they came into the barn. I sat there for an hour or so and then I see some familiar faces rolling up on golf carts. It was Umphrey’s McGee!!! I was in awe because they are my favorite band and I could hardly speak to them. I told them how much their music meant to me and how much I appreciate them. I didn’t have my camera but I will never forget meeting them.

I love Summer Camp and all the positivity that engulfs the campgrounds. I have been the past 3 years and will not miss camp for anything. My best memory from 2011 was dancing on stage behind Girl Talk it was sooo much fun. Last year I won a freaking golden ticket and I won tickets to see Brain Damaged Eggmen in the red barn from technaflora. Summer Camp has been so good to me and it feels great to volunteer and give a little back to the festival that just keeps giving to me.

Happy camping freaky people! 🙂 Stop and say hi this summer! Can’t wait to see all your beautiful faces soon 🙂 UMPHLOVE
