Hello TBSCC! It's Nice to Meet You!

Speaking of the lovely Room 10, I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Julianne Griffith and I'll be a counselor in Room 10 for this year's Summer Camp program! I'm 19 years old and attend the University of Pittsburgh. I'm new to the TBSCC community, but I worked in childcare throughout high school, and I love having the opportunity to work with such enthusiastic, dedicated learners! If the name Griffith sounds familiar, I'm Miss Maria's daughter, and I've been hearing about all the wonderful things that happen at Temple Beth Shalom for a few years now, making my first day today that much more exciting!

Between the playground, the fun classroom toys, and the fantastic homemade play-doh, Room 10 and I had quite an action-packed day. The kitchen sets, both inside and outside, seemed to be some of the most popular attractions. Adam and Abby served me bowl after bowl of mouthwatering soup, featuring every ingredient from pizza to cucumbers while Nathan rang up our groceries and toasted some delicious challah. Mia even joined in on the fun when we got outside! She presented me with the rare delicacy known as a "fireball". Unfamiliar with this particular treat, I asked Mia what it tasted like. "Eyeballs," she casually replied. Delicious?

Needless to say, I can't wait for another great day tomorrow!

  1. 1) Julianne- welcome!! It is clear from your post that we are very lucky to have you! Knowing who your mom is only helps out! We are so excited to have you!

    2) You are a natural blogger- I loved reading about you and the goings-on of the Tzahov class! You take after your mother in a number of ways!

    3)It didn't hurt that your post included both my children! :) I hope they treat you well and possibly feed you something that tastes better than eyeballs. Adam is a huge fan of hot dogs!
