TBT: Zac and the Corn Snake

Calvin the Corn Snake!

As I was getting packed up for my return to Camp Foley in 2013, it made me think about all the memories and friendships I made. One of the activities that I really liked to teach was the nature class. The campers were always excited to go on nature walks and hold the snakes. The nature room was very busy some days and I always enjoyed showing the campers the snakes. One of my favorite and strangest memories from the nature room was during my snake class. I had taken out the Corn Snake so the campers could hold it and see what it looked like. What happened next was quite strange and I have never had this happen to me before, but when I set him on the table all of a sudden he decided to go to the bathroom on the table. It startled me for a second because it was so random and it hadn't happened before. It was very memorable and will always remind me about my first year at camp.
