Current Entry: Piapalooza
On Day Four at Winter Camp XXXVII, the schedule published in the Winter Camp News attached the suffix "-palooza" onto each meal and activity. Piapalooza, an all-pie meal, made its Winter Camp debut that day under that name, although homemade pie has been served many times at camp. The main course was beef pie, prepared with potatoes and carrots. This was followed by a wide selection of dessert pies: apple, cherry, blueberry, and chocolate. Silver Trails Scout Reservation officials were favorably impressed by the bill of fare; one of them noted that Winter Camp might not be allowed to leave the next day and another commented that Winter Camp should publish a cookbook. The Winter Camp library, of course, holds a number of volumes containing noteworthy and possibly infamous recipes that have been prepared at camps gone by.
