What is a Tlirgin?
Is it your first time at camp? Perhaps a “Virgin” at “Tluda”? Then you are a Tlirgin.
What Does it Take to be Tlirgin of the Year?
The vote is left to a series of judges: the current year’s camp counselor, the previous year’s Tlirgin of the Year, and the Camp Director. Sunday morning they gather to vote based on 4 various categories:
Caring - you are caring, kind and thoughtful to your fellow campers. There is no space for mean bullies.
Attitude - you have a positive attitude and are eager to try new things, play games, and be part of the community.
Memorable - you have left your mark, and we can’t imagine camp without you! We still talk about you to this day.
Proactive - whether it’s setting up lawn games, helping clean up or others unpack, you’re a proactive member
Get ready - we look forward to seeing you bring your best CAMP to Camp Tluda!
Winners of Tlirgin of the Year
The concept of “Tlirgin of the Year” was instituted in 2017. The camp director has retroactively voted for previous T.O.Y. based off longevity and impact. Many of the retro winners have yet to miss a session, and have become camp counselors.
