The Mar-Y-Mac Cheer

I'm a hayseed.
My hair is seaweed,
And my ears are made of leather
And they flop in windy weather.
Gosh oh Hemlock,
I'm tough as a pinenut.
I'm from MAR-Y-MAC!
Can't you see?

Man On the Moon

July, 1969- My counselors were Krekor and Sage and I was 10 years old that summer. The summer days were long and campfires started while the sun was still in the sky. We were enthusiastically singing our favorite campfire songs; Down on the Banks of the Hanky Panky and MacNamamra's Band. As the day started to fade into night, Krekor, who had her ear glued to a transistor radio, said she had an announcement, "They have landed on the Moon!" The whole camp erupted in a spontaneous cheer and we stood and stared in awe at the pale moon hanging in the evening sky. KimMarie-"Chipper"
