We have already experienced the mock government
setting with primary elections of auditor, treasurer, attorney general,
secretary, lieutenant governor, and governor by the Nationalist and Federalist
parties. Everyone has already been thrown into making friends, speeches, and
coming up with ideas.
In the short time that we have been staying at VTC, we have already met celebrities, including Miss
Vermont 2009 Caroline Bright (Co-Director of GMGS) and Miss Vermont 2011 Katie
Levasseur. They have both spoken about the importance of getting involved both
at camp and in our communities. It can benefit everyone to take advantage of the
opportunities that come to us; once we seize these, positive changes can be
brought to both ourselves and our world. Girls came to this camp hoping to gain
government experience and knowledge and create friendships—this has fortunately
been the case.
