Camp Confessions @summercampconfessions - Tumblr Blog

Hi i'm writing on behalf of Medomak Camp in Maine to get the word out to former camp counselors about their next step in summer camping...FAMILY CAMP- in need of a bit more mature job?--it's still working with kids, still needing the charisma and stamina of a camp counselor- yet- you don't take care of the kids all night (they go back to their cabins with their parents), and you get to meet and hang out with adults and have real long lasting connections made. Your focus at a family camp really becomes about making camp a better place and making it a well rounded experience for all ages, instead of draining yourself as a kid sitter all day.

Medomak is a beautiful camp located in Washington, Maine- I had no idea the connection and love I would gain for family camps (coming from kids camps myself) until i tried it out 3 years ago.

so if you're looking for a great camp job again, a personalized experience, small staff, all the fun of camp and kids but the ability to be yourself just a little bit more and gain amazing contacts with adults from all over- check out Medomak and apply if it seems right :) Or if you have personal questions feel free to contact me on my own blog!

thanks for letting me post here! i just really think more counselors should look into family camps after doing kids camps.

a tip for new counselors! write down the funny things the campers say! that way you'll always remember the little things:)

Quote books in the staff room are perfect for this.

A tip for first time counselors.. Remember that camp is for counselors as much as it is for campers. Don't stress when things don't go as planned and learn to wing it and make things fun for everyone including yourself

Just an advice tip for those who just got hired and it is their first year on staff: remember every single person before you and your counselors when you were campers were all in that same position at one point. Quite honestly as a third year counselor, I've learned that winging it is the best skill you can have. Also, take your time off to yourself at least once, you'll value it a lot more that way.
