Sometimes the King is a Woman.

While in this case, the Princess is Jennifer.

Princess Jennifer is just one of many noble individuals I spent this past week with, while working at Camp Bratton Green’s special session dos for mentally and physically disabled adults.  With the exception of having to diffuse a few public masturbation instances and handle a handful of seizures, each time I spend a week with the campers of special session I determine it to be the most refreshing, encouraging, and optimistic week of my entire year.  The complete absence of judgment, spiteful competition, and bad intentions matched with the overwhelming presence of genuine and total acceptance creates perhaps the most perfect community I have ever experienced.

The week began with a little singing and dancing, which then led into some singing and dancing, followed by a bomb fireworks show, and finally ended with some especially awesome singing and dancing. 

When we weren’t singing and dancing, an array of equally incredible activities were taking place.  Meanwhile, Graham Davies could most likely be found flawlessly reciting scene after scene of ABC family’s original film “Dunstan Checks In”, or interrogating his most recent listener on topics including but not limited to keys, ceiling fans, light bulbs or highchairs. 

Rachelle, known to all as Brittany Spears, another very memorable face of special session, was seen on several occasions in a lace-wedding gown proposing marriage at the most in-optimal times to those who were least prepared. Brittany did so despite her existing marriage to Johnny Depp, the father of her beautiful sons, Harry Potter, the Jonas brothers, and Kid Rock.

Dustin and Terrell, just two of the ballers from cabin B, were at all times rollin on chromed out scraper bike rims.  And though they look pretty hardcore, these boys have smiles for miles.

2010 we did it Again! Eric Hardin is nothing short of one of a kind.  He has an uncanny ability to burst out with the most bizarrely remarkable and trademarkable one-liners when the room is completely silent and all around least expect it. 

If ever Courtney is spotted, you can guarantee he is quickly sneaking off to his cabin, exuding paranoia, on a mission to “add to his collection” the new iPhone 4 he recently found unattended.

And then there’s Reggie Harris.  Without a doubt, the biggest heart, the biggest smile and the highest tube socks to ever be possessed by one individual.

I’ll leave you now with an, oh so professional, high quality video from the week.  Enjoy
