Day 1 - Saturday

A new day dawns at Camp Jubilee. Thankfully for most of you, the children won't arrive until 11am, so you have one last quiet morning to yourselves. At 8am sharp, loudspeakers throughout camp play the tolling of large bells that serves as the meal bell here. (Reverend Mark wanted real church bells but none of the existing structures could accommodate them; a future project he assured everyone.) All meals are served in the Jensen building, the largest structure in camp. It's two stories--grey on bottom and red on top--with a long attic for storage. An interior staircase in the center and a an exterior wooden staircase on the western side lead to the second floor, which also contains a balcony running the length of the building. Reverend Mark also had solar panels installed on this building so the camp could run "off the grid."

The dining hall is on the second floor and takes up half the building with the kitchen, bathrooms, and offices taking up the rest. The dining hall is a large cafeteria-style room with long benches taking up the middle of the floor, with the exterior wall containing windows and the interior wall containing the buffet counters behind which is the kitchen. Religious iconography adorn the walls, as well as Bible quotes and other aphorisms about obedience, manners, and various virtues. A few landscape paintings are also hung around the room, along with dreamcatchers and other camp-themed knickknacks. Until today you all had simple lunches provided by a cheap catering service, mainly lunchbox-style meals like a sandwich, apple, cookies, and juice. Dinner was usually better but not by much. But today hired cooks would be arriving to provide all meal for everyone. But today was not now, and breakfast was a third-rate hotel buffet of three kinds of cereal, orange juice, plain bagels (with no cream cheese), and some apples and bananas. As you arrive, Bobby and Heather are already eating at the center table.

Two cooks arrive during the breakfast, a man and a woman, and both appear to be in their sixties at a rough guess. They are pulling collapsible carts on wheels and filled with brown paper bags of foodstuffs. They introduce themselves as Martin and Edith Warburton, a retired husband and wife team who own a restaurant in the nearest town Pemberton, an hour's drive from here. They are semi-retired as their daughter manages the restaurant for them and they mostly get by with Social Security, revenue from the restaurant, and odd-jobs they take to keep themselves entertained in their retirement. Martin has a full head of salt-and-pepper hair and is still burly even in his twilight years and looks better suited to be a lumberjack or Drill Sargent than a cook in his younger years. Edith is contrastingly wasp-thin, with black hair tied in a bun. Both have friendly faces and warm smiles, if a bit awkward around so many young people.

At Kristin's mention of bacon and sausage, Edith gives her a smile and says, "Then you are in luck dear, for our first official breakfast tomorrow we will be making bacon and sausage omelets." Then she looks to Dacey and says, "It can only get better right?" as she gestures to the pitiful food she is eating for breakfast currently.

Martin speaks up, "Come now, Edith, let's leave these youngins to their meal. We gotta get started on lunch prep. Macaroni and cheese with fresh bread, salad, and fried fish with tartar sauce if any of you'se was wondering," he adds. Edith nods and they make their way to the door next to the buffet bar that leads to the kitchen
