Marylee Kauffman stands at 5 foot 1.5 inches. Looks are decieving. To look at her, you wouldn't know that she is a dish-washing-animal! Since arriving at camp on June 14th she has washed 6,299 dishes (cups, plates, bowls, silverware and anything else we dirty at mealtime). Our dishwasher broke two years ago and Marylee was ecstatic. I wondered if she sabatoged the machine.
For the last 20 years Marylee has been coming to Kokrine Hills and doing the dishes. During the year she is a school teacher in Galena, but during the summer she has permanent dish pan hands--and loves it. She is a fixture here at camp and I hope to see her here for 20 more years.
You may want to pray that her hands hold up because I am certain I couldn't keep up with those dishes.
