Dear Sparkly Campers

[pensnest]

Thank you for once again proving that our mad experiment all those years ago was a brilliant idea.

I realised when I got home that I had never once bothered to put on makeup, or worried about how I looked beyond 'what do I feel like wearing today'. It never matters at Camp. I didn't need to worry about whether everyone was finding something interesting to do, because we just fissioned off in different directions and Did Things. I could always find a conversation if I wanted one, and didn't feel pressured to talk if I wanted to be quiet. And I had some truly excellent laughs, as always!

Also, those puppets are worth their weight in gold.

Assuming we Britishers haven't eaten each other by next summer, let's do it again.

It truly is inspired and inspiring!

I also had a fabulous time with just the right balance of sightseeing, socializing, writing, and downtime. Always one of the magical aspects of Camp.

I'm truly sad I won't be there next year.

Yes! Camp is the best and there's always something to do! If anything, there's almost too much to do because there's no way to do everything interesting, but that's a good kind of problem to have! :D

I've enjoyed reading about Camp Sparkle in various places. I'm so glad you all had a good time.

Camp Sparkle was the best idea ever!!

I'll keep my fingers crossed you can refrain from cannibalism until next summer because I REALLY want to see everyone next summer!!

Agreed! I was just thinking about how nice it was not to worry about your looks for a week. Also having to censor yourself way less!

Thank you once again for organizing such a lovely week every year. ♥

It was such a fabulous week -- it always is!

Thanks, as ever, for lining the ducks up so it happens. :)

(Send word by trained jackdaw if cannibalism looms; I'll smuggle you black-market sausages!)

Even though we always do all the things, it's also a very relaxed week and I love spending time with everyone.

Thanks for organizing it every year! <333
