The work was fulfilling, and gave me good practical experience for my future career as an educator. Also, there's an amazing spiritual community there.
What I wish was different
Organization and management were very disconnected between the two major departments, which added a lot of stress on everyone.
Advice
Be prepared to go above and beyond, but you'll be doing it for people and a place you love.

Camp Counselor
June - August 2018 • Hillsdale, MI
What I liked
I enjoyed learning how to interact and lead an age group that I had never be involved with before.
What I wish was different
I did not always feel 100% welcomed by my co-workers, as well as, struggled with handling younger children.
Advice
Camp counseling is hard. You don't get paid very much and you work long weeks, but it's the most rewarding thing when a child who is in your cabin accepts Jesus as their Savior.
