A Camp Monroe letter arrive this morning addressed to Family of Carly Harris. My first thought was had she been caught drinking and they were throwing her off camp? No, of course not. The letter went as follows:
Dear Parent,
We have a special program at camp where we try to teach and install good character traits (midos) into our campers and staff. Each week we highlight two midos of the week for everyone to work on. At the end of each week we honor those members of our Camp Monroe family who have recognised by others as exemplifying our midos of the week. We give these individuals special recognition in front of the entire camp and present them with our coveted “Honorable Menschen”award.
Your child was a recipient of this award and we thought you would be pleased to know about it. Enclosed is the “ Honorable Menschen” award certitificate.
We are very proud of the fine individuals who become Camp Monroe “Honorable Menschen”. We are happy to share this information with you.
My Fond regards
Stanley
Carly, Daddy and I are so proud of you, to have good character traits are, to us one one the most important things you can have. Well done.
