Camp Counselor

June - August 2019 • Gilbertsville, PA

What I liked

I loved getting to go to another a state for the summer. I met so many different kinds of people, from different countries, and kids from all walks of life. I have met some of my closest friends here, can’t wait to return!

What I wish was different

Advice

You work pretty much 24/7. You have to constantly be on top of to game. Taking care of a group of kids for a week can be stressful, so knowing how to manage that along with getting along with co counselors can be hard. Know how to do this, and you’ll have a great summer!
