CIT Origin StoryBy Katie Predella

We all know and love the CIT’s of camp, but the real question is, how did they get here? Well, now there’s an answer.

One typical day at camp, the campers were all eating lunch underneath the tent stage. This is when the AIT’s (Aliens In Training) attacked the campus. Smelling the delicious pizza, they destroyed the tent stage. They wrecked havoc on the camp, and everyone in it. The counselors tried to stop them, but unfortunately they were no match for the powerful AIT’s. They took all the pizza, and all the desert. They made the sculpture classes build temples to them, and the drawing classes do portraits of them. They forced the writing classes into writing stories about them, and gave the music classes new songs about them to play. Each class tried to fight back against the evil AIT’s, but it was all to no avail. The kids were very unhappy, and the counselors were concerned for the welfare of the camp. Parents threatened to pull their children from the program if they didn’t do something about the pesky AIT’s. The counselors decided that they needed to hire some undercover agents to help stop the AIT’s. They hired a group of people, and called them CIT’s. You may know this as Counselors In Training, but it really stands for Combatiers in Training. Each night, after camp was over, the CIT’s got together and trained for the big battle to fight against the AIT’s. Finally, the day had come to take back CRCAP. The CIT’s gathered in the carpool circle, drawing the attention of the AIT’s. They fought the AIT’s for half of the day, while the other campers ran around campus, gathering supplies for them. However, one of the AIT’s set a force field around them so they couldn’t escape. The Counselors fought with the CIT’s, but were quickly taken down. It was up to the CIT’s to save the camp. After many long, hard hours of battling, they finally defeated and banished the AIT’s. The camp was free. Today, we still have CIT’s in case the AIT’s decide to return. After camp, they train together, preparing for the day when the AIT’s invade once more. Now you know why we have CIT’s, and why we are so thankful to have them protecting our camp.

CIT AnagramsBy Ryan Kane

For those of you that don’t know what an anagram is, it’s when you take a word or phrase, and you mix it around to make another word or phrase. For example, the word anagram is an anagram of nag a ram. So what I did was took the first letter of all the CIT’s first names and made some anagrams. Oh and by the way not all of them use every letter. So here they are:

● Sandcastles● Cameraman● Dreamland● Classmate● Calendars● Grammar● Actress● Sandman● Damaged● Scanned● Manager● Smart● Jars● Gems● Rare● Rats● Star● Mad● Salt● Red

And that’s only 20 of the 1,445 anagrams for djlamenradmgacsgjndjsgrts. And also I didn’t find all of these by myself. I used a cool website called wordsmith.org/anagram. It’s really simple, all you have to do is type something in and it comes up with a whole list of things. That’s pretty much it I guess so bye.

The Dominant Hands of the CITs and JCsBy Christine Foster

People’s dominant hand can say many things, so I with the help of the Photojournalism class and the Daily Double’s resident Second Year tree CIT, Gabbie Martucci, decided to ask the CITs and JCs what their dominant hands were. These

Will this reveal of the lack of diversity enough to encourage Aaron Gelb to hire more non-right handed individuals? Will Nicci ever find out that Gerald is her long lost brother? Find out next week on: Gassip Gurl

were the results:

Right handed: 22

Left handed: 3

Ambidextrous: 0

What does the low rate of left handed and ambidextrous people a c o i n c i d e n c e , or intentional? Does this mean that CRCAP is a handiest camp?

Asking Staff for Free CandyBy Ryan Kane

Right now I’m in the mood for candy so I’m gonna ask peoples for candy and see what they say. So let’s start.

Walker: You can have candy if you write me a 700,000 word article about the cold war.

Chautauqua: If you write a 2,000 word article about Jamaica.

Drew: I don’t have any candy.

Caer: I don’t have any candy to give you.

Gabby: Does gum count as candy?

Ok so that’s pretty much it I guess. If you want me to ask more staff more questions, just write down a question or name of staff in my advice column Awkward Advice and put the word ASK at the bottom. Oh and also goodbye peoples!

The 5 most sexist Disney moviesBy Eleanor Dunne

As plenty of people know, most Disney movies are not the best thing to show young girls, as it can give them the wrong ideas. Here are the top 5 most sexist Disney movies, in no particular order.

5. Cinderella: cleaning. Talking to birds and animals. Dearest wish is to go to a ball and meet a prince. Waiting for a prince to rescue her. This film is undeniably sexist.

4. Beauty and the Beast: Though Belle is cool, Stockholm Syndrome. ‘Nuff said.

3. Aladdin: This movie is racist as well as sexist. Some people say they can see Aladdin’s skin get fairer when he married Jasmine.

2. Sleeping Beauty: Ugh. Prince. Rescue. Princess. ENOUGH. SAID.

1. The Little Mermaid: Where do I begin to describe The Little Mermaid? Ariel gives up her voice to get with a prince she’s never met, and only likes him for his looks. Then, Eric chooses Ariel for her looks. Not to mention, in Poor Unfortunate Souls Ursula is making people see flaws in themselves to drum up her business. To quote: “This one longing to be thinner, that one wants to get the girl, and do I help them? Yes, indeed.” Also, “you’ll have your looks, your pretty face. And don’t underestimate the importance of body language, ha!” This is the MOST SEXIST Disney movie by FAR.

Mulan and Brave are the best princess movies. Mulan shows how she can stand up for herself, and saves all of China. Merdia competes in an archery competition for her own hand and WINS. She don’t need no man.

Women on the Twenties: How America’s Money is Changing for the BetterLindsey Gilfeather

Feminism: the advocacy of women’s rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.

Basically, feminism is the idea that women deserve to be equal to men wherever they are around the world. Whether it’s the workplace or on social media, women deserve to be equal to men. Often, feminism is mistaken for misandry, which is the hatred or distrust of males. Feminism is something completely different. It stands for equality for everyone(women, men, and everything in between).

Over the past year, a new movement has started called WomenOn20s. They had an online poll that asked the reader to choose between 15 women that would be potential candidates for the twenty dollar bill. Over the span of ten weeks, the choices were narrowed to four heroines: Wilma Mankiller, Eleanor Roosevelt, Rosa Parks, and Harriet Tubman. The voters chose one woman at the end: Harriet Tubman. More than 600,000 votes were casted overall.

There are many reasons why it is ideal to have a woman on our paper currency, whether it’s a ten or twenty dollar bill. Children growing up in America will finally grow up seeing female role models that shaped the nation. Instead of seeing just men, young girls will see more women as leaders and it will hopefully inspire them to become leaders themselves.
