Chapel
Chapel is a non religious time on Sundays when the camp gathers to discuss a topic. The topics are always about the camp values. Chapel is lead by a different village every time. Several campers and counselors are chosen to give a speech on the theme. Chapel takes place in Chapel by the Lake. Chapel by the Lake is a quiet grove in the woods and is right on the lake. It consists of a number of wooden benches and one podium. It is outdoors and is one of the most important places at camp.

Famous quotes containing the word chapel:
“I never went near the Wellesley College chapel in my four years there, but I am still amazed at the amount of Christian charity that school stuck us all with, a kind of glazed politeness in the face of boredom and stupidity. Tolerance, in the worst sense of the word.... How marvelous it would have been to go to a women’s college that encouraged impoliteness, that rewarded aggression, that encouraged argument.”
—Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
“I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen:
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.
And the gates of this Chapel were shut,
And ‘Thou shalt not’ writ over the door;”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
“One thing’s certain. With a name like Abrahams, he won’t be in the chapel choir, now will he?”
—Colin Welland (b. 1934)
