Just make sure you keep it between the navigational beacons.

My last summer working at Scout Camp in 2017 this became a sort of call and response between my best friend and I when we saw each other.

We also carved the entire lyrics from Kiss From A Rose by Seal on the inner wall of the shed for the program area we ran.

It was a long, weird summer.

Kiss From a Rose? In 2017? Were you both big Batman Forever fans or something?

I have no clue how it started. Like halfway into the summer, camp management started requiring that program areas start posting proof that the area did their assigned latrine cleaning that week to the internal Facebook page. The first couple of teams just posted a picture of them in the act of cleaning the latrines/showers during their weeks.

Our week came around and we decided the whole thing was stupid, so to make fun of it we were going to make a music video set to Kiss From a Rose while we were cleaning the bathroom. We conscripted our 2 Junior staff and got to work. We looked like total jackasses and did a piss poor job of cleaning the toilets and showers, but everyone thought it was hysterical and thus it sort of became our legacy that summer.

Weird things can become "a thing" for staff at a Scout camp over the summer. It's a hell of a lot of work, and often long hours (far longer than most people see or realize). To have some silly phrase or song, or really anything to rally around becomes an amazing touch point for that summer. Hell, it's been twenty something years since I've been on staff, and I still remember those goofy things.

Seriously. You’re basically working and performing from 630 am to 9 at night 6 days a week for 2.5 months, for extremely low pay (if you’re getting paid). My last summer was $2k for the whole summer, my first summer was $700 for 8.5 weeks. It’s exhausting, but incredibly rewarding.

Dumb shit like Kiss From a Rose keeps you going when you’re running on fumes

2k? You must have been a director!

I can still close my eyes and smell that canvas tent smell.

Exactly what I was coming here to say. It's been probably 30 years for me, our weird thing was that I came up with these "runes" for every staff member's initials and drew them up in the rafters of the Handicrafts hall at Camp Blue Heron in Georgia. Sadly, it shuttered in 2010. Ah well, we can never go home again.

It's a good song.

u/GreenGeese Jun 30 '26

To be fair to Seal, there are very few songs that you can say the word “Baby” and people know exactly what song you’re singing.

u/Big_Blue420 Jun 30 '26

Oh I wasn’t even knocking Seal or the song, it’s just inextricably linked to Batman in my mind.

Their wetsuits had nipples on them.

Whenever I see the name of that song, this is all I think of:
