Like it was stated last night for the MSC staff “Talentless Show,” the campers’ talent FAR outweighs that of the staff, and tonight’s highly-anticipated “Talent Show” definitely proved it. The show was chock full of amazing talent, running nearly two hours, and ending in the wee hours of the morning, at nearly 12:30 AM.
Here’s the talented lineup:
- Samantha Haub played piano and sang “The Cup Song” with accompaniment by her brother Adam playing the cups
- Adam & Samantha Haub saluted the veterans and sang “Dirt Road Anthem”

- First-time Sr. Week camper Evelyn Loughmiller played “Lost Boys” on the flute while the crowd softly sang along
- Briana Ayres played guitar and sang “Thousand Years”
- Isaac Dispennett had the crowd eating out of the palm of his hands when he performed “Frogs,” which he would sing a line and have the audience repeat the line. As a follow-up, he changed the song to “Todd” in honor of Director Todd Hall, who, according to Isaac, “is not cool”
- Maggie Williams & Kyra Turk sang “Travelin’ Soldier,” as Maggie played guitar

- Zelton Kay and his dulcimer were joined by Logan Grimm on guitar and Derek Gould on ukulele while he drove the crowd into a frenzy with “Still Running,” with backup vocals by Logan & Derek
- Logan Grimm performed a mini-concert as he kept the audience begging for more with “Fix You,” “Never Gonna Give You Up,” “These Arms of Mine,” and “Sussudio”
- Last Year Camper Girls hosted a game of MSC Trivia with the Last Year Camper Boys, who were divided into Team Precious & Team Sweet, with Team Precious gaining bragging rights
