My dad sent up a stuffed animal with candy stuffed in it.
I had scissors at camp and cut open where my dad had sewed it.
Nobody knew there was candy in it. But don't forget to put the candy
in ziplock bags or otherwise the bugs will get it first.

My camp does not allow me to bring candy. However with the cooperation
of family and friends, I'm supplied with it all summer! Every year when I go
to camp, I take five pairs of socks. Then my mom sends me more socks and stuffs
them with candy. Before I go to camp, I find old books and I rip out all the
pages and put candy in them. Then my mother sends the books in one big package.
Even though I have candy in camp, the challenge is eating it without being discovered!

Once my sister had a teddy bear. She took the stuffing out and put in
at least $20 worth of gum. It smelled really good and when some people came
into the bunk they could smell it and they took it away. She didn't put enough
spray around the teddy bear to disguise the candy smell.

Have someone send you a puppet, have them sew snap-on buttons on the hole.
Put candy in the hole.

My friend Becky had her birthday and her family sent her a teddy bear
filled with candy. By the time the teddybear got to her, the camp had torn the
insides out and there was a huge hole in the teddy's stomach!

My stepgrandfather sent me a package of
tennis balls to camp. Unfortunately, he didn't disguise the candy inside well
enough, so when the head counselor checked to see if anything was inside,
the candy gushed out. I was really embarrassed!

One night at camp we had a cookout with sodas, cookies, and a lot of other
junk food. I brought a small backpack with me to put sodas in for the rest of the
bunk. After the cookout we went to our bunks where I put the backpack on my bed.
As I reached in to get a Coke, I felt that my bag was wet. My Coke can had leaked!
There was soda on my bed and on the floor. We took the backpack outside and I
shared the one remaining Coke with a friend.

At camp my sister packed some candy in a bag. When I opened the bag thinking
it was mail, the candy came out. Then the next day someone stole the candy!
