At the end of the week, they are require to attend a leadership ceremony where they recieve a green bandana with 4 leaf clover patches for their achievement. Each leaf is a different color representing the age of the camper. (Any age camper can be counceled and recieve clover leaf.) Every year returned and counceled, you recive another piece of the clover. This bandana is the symbolism of the camper, counselor relationship and their respect of friendship for each other. This bandana helps to lighten their spirits and remind them of the achievements they have earned. Also, when you turn 16, you recieve a white banana, a councelor bandana. This may symbolize your maturity for becoming a councelor. And every year returned in a counselor position ,you continue with the leadership ceremonies being counseled and counseling others (still recieving leaves until you are 21 years of age).
