The Plague

OriginWinter Camp XXVI (2002)
The StoryAt Winter Camp XXVI, no fewer than 12 Winter Campers fell prey to some bug. It left them sick with diarrhea and vomiting; sometimes they didn't have much time to react when the urge hit them. John Howey compensated for this by sleeping on a bench in the BC shower building. All but two of the campers managed to survive the week.

There was, as one might imagine, a great deal of speculation about the cause of the illness; initially, the wild game was suspected, but it turned out John hadn't eaten any. Eventually it was discovered that some campers had arrived in camp having just gotten over a flu with the same symptoms.

VeracityTrue.
