THE 100th EPISODE OF TRAIL MIX?! Thank you for letting us share your stories. Camp Shady Birch wouldn’t be the same without the chaos you campers have brought to these ole bags of Trail Mix.

In this mini episode, we are reading listener submitted stories about a camper who went to the grocery store for bread, and left with the fallout from her own mother's meltdown, a camper who proved the pen is mightier than the sword (and the attendance sheet is deadlier than detention), and a camper who was scrolling on the adult side of Reddit only to recognize some of the rooms in the pictures.

This week at camp, we’re unpacking our trip to a bachelorette weekend in the Poconos. It was a getaway that came with a side of E. coli, and the cherry on top was a full-blown public bridal party screaming match. Somehow, the chaos segues (yes thats how you spell it i think...) into cars. A favorite mode of transportation here at camp! Jonathan’s questionable driving skills, our unsolicited TED Talk on roundabouts, and a Romeo and Juliet production performed entirely with trucks and construction vehicles. Yes, for realsies.
