Foiled

Must have been the summer of 1989 when I was working in the kitchen during girls season. It was a typical Wednesday which was normally a very busy day in the kitchen. Many of the cooks were good friends who had worked together before. There was Chris, Kyle, myself and two others I think Frank, and Lee was the Food Service director. Wed. we had to prepare breakfast then lunch for the whole camp as this was the first day during the week that half the units were not on all-day hikes. In addition to that we had to prepare the packouts for overnights and this summer we expected the truck on Wed. to bring provisions. We all decided to split up the tasks to divide and conquer. Kyle volunteered to do the overnight packouts so we split up the cooking tasks for breakfast and when the truck came in after breakfast we all dropped what were were doing to empty out the truck. after the truck was unloaded the rest of us other than Kyle started lunch.
After lunch we hurried to clean the kitchen. On Wed. Opposite season staff (boys during girls season) had the rest of the evening off and we were hurrying to get done so that we head to Marion for the evening.

On person had to stick around until the pack outs were all picked up.Kyle volunteered to stay and since we were all going into town together, we planned to come back around 4:30 to get him and leave. Normally a few units have 2 hour hikes on Wed. after noon so they can get an early start on their overnight. As usual a number of units had picked up their pack outs well before we Came back. On of the last units to pick up was Raganea and their Unit lead Liz Deurker was picking up their pack when we returned. Kyle reminded her as he had everyone else to check and make sure everything was in the pack before she left. She slowly surveyed the contents and suddenly blurted out "Were is the aluminum foil" Kyle took a look in the milk crates and realized he had forgotten to put it in. He went to the back room and found all of the foil for all the pack outs was still back on the shelf.
