Dyin' to know By: Jess Hoffman

	At times when walking around here at Campus Kids, you may question if you are in the midst of the 1960's. But, once you realize that there are no rioters outside Tom's office, and the clubs are truly just fun clubs without any devious motives, then you will see that the mass amount of tie-dye found all around campus is simply just because we love it!
	(I, myself, am a fan)
	Luckily, our camp offers an activity that lets us create our own tie-dye!
It starts out where everyone soaks their white clothes in a Sulfur solution in order to prevent the dye from washing out.		The kids then take it out, and twist their clothes in certain ways that create certain patterns. Many popular patterns are the bullseye, the spiral, stripes, and more! Counselors and staff assistants who have been here for many years and know how to make a great tiedye, often help.
	Then the dye comes out! (so do the gloves to prevent dye from staining everyone's hands!)
	The colors are always vivid!
	Then once that's over, the tie-dyed clothing are either put in bags still rubber-banded, or the rubber bands are taken out, and to see the beautiful creations!
	Alright well I gotta run, which hopefully the dye won't do.. (I think I've used too many bad jokes in the past couple weeks) .. so hope you enjoyed this psychedelic photo journal, and tune into news about Campstock, that's when you'll see a crazy amount of tie dye! Peace out!
