Nate's 21st Century Communication

 By Nate Feldman Warm-up: What do you know about summer camp?  They are extremely popular in the United States.   Hello everyone and welcome to Camp Doomsday!  The only place in the world where humans and monsters interact with one another and form lifelong relationships!  My name is Josh, and standing next to me are Jerry and Ghazel, my co-founders and co-partners of this amazing program.   Today, we're going to take you on a tour of our amazing facilities, but before we begin, I've got to ask you all some questions......Who here has seen programs about the zombie apocalypse?  Or movies where terrifying creatures attack humankind?  Well, we at Camp Doomsday don't believe it has to be that way.  Our camp gives young humans and monsters an opportunity to learn one another's traditions while breaking down stereotypes.  But, if you don't believe me, come along and let me show you all we have to offer here!
