⚠️ HAVE YOU SEEN OUR CO**SE COUNSELORS ⚠️

Attention Campers! We have a bit of a situation at Camp Rotten Creek. It appears our volunteer Co**se Counselors have wandered off into the dark woods for various reasons and now we can't find them 😩

We’re pretty sure they’re still out there somewhere in the woods, so keep an eye out! They were all last seen wearing their official Camp Rotten Creek shirts. If you spot one roaming the grounds, please wave them down if you need help navigating the wilderness 🏕️

In all seriousness, we want to extend our deepest undead gratitude to these amazing people 🙏🖤

Return of Horror Homecoming simply would not be possible without the endless dedication, energy, and generous spirits of these hardworking individuals. Running a camp of this magnitude takes a lot, and our volunteer team has gone above and beyond behind the scenes to make this event safe, fun, and unforgettable for everyone.

If you see our Co**se Counselors working hard around the event on Saturday, please give them a massive thank you 🤘 We can't wait to see you all Saturday, 8/29 from 8pm-12am 👑 LINK IN OUR BIO FOR TICKETS🎉🎉🎉
