Featured article: The Eclipse During the summer of 1989, Birch Rock's master of all things fun and creative Bob Van Dyk came up with a plan to fake an eclipse for the campers. In other words, he planned the ultimate camp prank to fool every camper at once. Bob was in his third summer as Head Counselor in '89 and was almost always funny. The camp was small with only around twenty campers and the prank was planned for when the Senior Campers were off campus. A couple of the Sunday staff meetings were used as time to plan and prepare as a group.

Bob would go so far as to read parts of the "article" to the group, an article that apparently never existed.
