JCC of Greater Pittsburgh

Camp Counselor

June - August 2023 • Pittsburgh, PA

What I liked

The opportunity to have fun during the summer, the ability to improve growth skills in confidence and leadership, the fact that free food was constantly being supplied to employees, and the creativity that was implemented into the job.

What I wish was different

I wish there was better handling of some of the campers. Some of them were aggressive and sometimes violent and never faced the consequences of their actions.

Advice

Remember to put on lots of sun screen and stay hydrated throughout the day, especially in months like July or August.
