This was the third year I worked at the YMCA Summer Camps. I love getting to be myself, have a ton of fun, help kids learn and grow, and truly make a difference in the world through kids.
What I wish was different
I wish There had been better organization at the very top. I felt my coworkers and I had to make up for this lack of organization ourselves because it wasn't being done at the top.
Advice
Never under estimate the power of camp, and interacting and being a role model for kids. You can make a huge impact on them, but you can also learn a lot about yourself through them.
