Summer Camp 2024 Reading Challenge and Shortlist

I am seriously behind this year with my Summer Camp shortlist and Summer Camp activities in general! I've been having a crazily busy IRL and haven't been able to spend the time and care that I normally do on my judging or Summer Camp in general!

This year I'm judging the tradtion prompt: "A tradition that represents moral decay." Boy have you guys delivered a phantasmagoria of dark celebrations and evil deeds! Congrats, you've thoroughly creeped me out, so mission accomplished!

Without further ado, here is my shortlist of articles in no particular order. My eventual winner is included amongst them!

As of now, I haven't chosen a winner yet. I'm going to sleep on it, but any comments to help me choose would be wonderful!!
