Summer Camp!
In my dream last night I was at some kind of youth Summer camp as one of the leaders. I don't remember all the beginning parts but towards the end we were all playing in a huge wooden waterworks thing. It was tons of fun, but the play time was coming to an end and I was helping drag one of the innertubes to its storage area when I was told about a quick meeting at one of the water slide sets.
I dropped the innertube and walked up this dirt path onto a small hill to the top of a set of 2 water slides that were wood on the outside and some kind of slick something on the inner part. When I got to the top I saw a meeting that was taking place with the speakers at the bottom of the slides which was covered. I stood up and was listening to the speaker talk when he asked who had a birthday within a week of today. I don't in reality, but apparently I did in the dream world, so I started to walk down, but then he clarified that he meant of the youth campers. I was half way down so I just stopped where I was and watched the kids step up. 3 kids come to the stage and all of them were guys.
The speaker then said he had a birthday present for them. He brought out a bag and in the bag was huge tacky earrings! They were all labeled as Dennis Rodman brand. Two of the guys gave the speaker disgusted looks and rudely made it quite clear that they didn't like the gifts and stormed off the stage when people started laughing.
The third guy actually put one of the earrings in one of his ears and said thanks even though he looked a little dissappointed. The speaker looked at him and said:
"No, no. It's okay, that's not the real gift!"
I vaguely recall him saying something else but can't remember what. He then pulled out a really nice 21 speed bike and gave it to the kid and told him that was the real gift then said something about appreciating things. The kid was stoked and rode it off the stage.
I then woke up.
