I was ALMOST hired, but I was in Israel (another goal on this list) the week of training and thus they told me to apply next year… I am happy though, because it means I have something to look forward too! I also know to apply for camps earlier… around January, so that my chances of getting a job are increased exponentially. _

This was the hardest and funnest job I have ever had. You don’t get paid very much, but considering at my camp I got free room and food it was really not bad. I won’t go back next year to complete my schooling, but it was very rewarding. The only warning I would say is that depending on the camp, counselors tend to create their own small society with gossip and do irresponsible things on days off—however you don’t have to engage in that if you don’t want too, like me. I would totally recommend doing this.

I just got back and I learned a lot. It was a lot of hard work, but I think it was worth it. I had a great time the first session, but second session was less fun. I’m still glad I did it though because I met a lot of new and different people. I don’t know if I will do this again for the entire summer, but I will go back for a little bit.

So I leave to be a camp counselor for a week this saturday. I was a camper at this Christian Camp for about 13 years and I absolutely loved it, those experiences shaped and changed my life. I just hope that I can make half the difference with the kids that the counselors I was fortunate to have growing up. Wish me Luck!
