4 . A local dog in Moundsville, West Virginia, has captured the admiration of the community by finding over 150 lost disc golf discs at a popular park. Unclaimed (无人认领的) discs will be on sale, with the money obtained going to the park.

Daisy is a four-year-old Labrador Retriever who loves going on walks with her owner, Kelly Mason, at Grand Vue Park. Every day, they walk about five miles through the park. Sometimes, Daisy goes on her own adventure and returns with a souvenir (纪念品).

“Daisy has a nose for finding discs,” Mason told WTRF. “We will be walking through the park and her nose will go up. She can smell them, and she just goes off. She could go off 30 yards through the the high weeds. And here she comes with a disc.”

Since she found her first disc about three years ago, Daisy has got back 155 of them with no plans of stopping anytime soon.

The park recently teamed up with Mason to create a program called Daisy’s Discs.

“Normally when park staff find them or when our park guests find them, all of them are turned into the barn (仓库) area,” says Ben Bolock, the assistant general manager at Grand Vue Park. “Some discs that have names on them, we call them, and people are able to come and pick them up ... they can also make a donation to Daisy’s Discs and that money will fund the Marshall County Animal Rescue League. If discs are found and there’s no name on them and we’ve had them for a long period of time and nobody has claimed them, the park will sell them for a very low amount and that money will go back into the disc golf course.”

5 . Every year as a kid at Girl Scout summer camp, the night I looked forward to most was the closing campfire, a few hours of silliness that marked our final evening together. All week, my roommates and I had kept perfecting our skit (滑稽短剧) performance, editing lines and practicing scenes.

Skits and songs are deeply rooted in the camp experience. The days might be all about sports or nature, but nighttime entertainment is a kid’s dream. Similar to a talent show, some performances are educational but mostly, they just make you laugh. Talent is not important, and audience engagement (参与) through call and response is essential.

Away from phones and peers back home, social norms (规范) disappear and space for self-exploration forms. Shy kids come out of their shells, and cool kids let their guard down. They get to open up this door to a part of themselves that they wouldn’t have felt safe to show at school or at home.

It’s been a decade since my last performance as a camp counselor (顾问), and I never thought of skits from a skill-building aspect. But I now realize this rich camp tradition left a great impression on me. Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd and learned how to accept others for their strangeness.

Maybe we can make our schools or communities more like summer camps by bringing the silliness of skits into our families and classrooms to reconnect with ourselves and each other. The next time you’re sitting around a campfire with friends and family, give it a try. Let your guard down, accept the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in on the improvising (即兴创作). And remember: the more funny noises and childlike humor, the better.
