Camp (Not Campy) Songs

My good friend is away working as a camp counselor and she doesn't have her iPod, only her discman and a small number of CDs. I want to send her a mix CD. I have a few that I have already made, but I was curious... does anybody have some song suggestions either about camp or that would sound especially good at camp?

Nothing says "campfire singalong" like Deep Down & Dirty by the Stereo MC's!

I wish we had Animal Collective when i was in camp,

All we had was "great green globs of greasy grimy gopher guts"

If it's a pseudo or mildly-Christian camp, then "One Tin Soldier".

It's in Wisconsin, serving the north shore of chicago... let's just say it's not even mildly Christian.

Does she like camp? If not, you might want to throw on some other styles.

"Pipe Camp, Pipe Camp, Thank you, Lord, for Pipe Camp..."

"This Land Is Your Land" Woody Guthrie
"Paradise" John Prine
"Let The Mystery Be" Iris Dement
"Teach Your Children" CSNY


I could go on, but I really should get back to work. Just put a whole bunch of folk music on there and she should be able to tackle them pretty easily.
