When the archery contest was finally held, Sheila managed third place. She also didn’t hit anyone with her arrows.

And if Striker ducked for cover every time she shot an arrow, she never saw.

Chapter 6: Talented or Terrible?

Camp was halfway over, and the campers were all preparing for Parents Day.

Striker was looking forward to showing his parents around. Though he didn’t plan to admit it, he missed them. He’d never been away from home for so long before. He couldn’t wait to show his mom how he could handle a kayak now, and he was ready to impress his dad by building a fire from scratch.

He shared his plans with Sheila and Amy.

“And don’t forget my favorite part of Parents Day,” said Sheila. “The talent show!”

“I’m singing in it,” said Amy.

“Yeah, I heard about the show,” said Striker. “Count me out!”

“You sure you don’t want to sing, too?” teased Amy. Amy had given Striker singing lessons for a brief time during the previous school year. They were not successful.

“You don’t have to perform,” said Sheila. “But it’s really fun to watch. In fact, they start rehearsals this afternoon. We should slip in and get a sneak peak.” She turned to Amy. “You wouldn’t mind, would you?”

“Mind what?” asked Richard, joining them.

“Us watching the talent show rehearsals,” said Sheila. “Amy’s going to be singing.”

“Yeah, let’s go!” said Richard. “We can give you moral support.”

“I never needed moral support in my life,” Amy said, lifting her chin, “but you are welcome to come and watch.”
