Summer Camp Counselor

June - August 2019 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I liked the team atmosphere there, all the other camp counselors and lead counselors were fun to be with. Also the children had a lot of energy which made activities very enjoyable to moderate.

What I wish was different

I wish that food was closer during breaks.

Advice

One piece of advice that I would like to share is to make sure to not refill water cups over and over again during lunch time. This causes a lot of bathroom breaks!
