Kalamazoo Country Club

Camp Counselor

June - August 2019 • Kalamazoo, MI

What I liked

This was the second year the Country Club hosted a kids camp and my second year working. So I not only loved the opportunity to return to the same kids, but also being a part of many needed changes. I loved being a part of curriculum building and learning many child management techniques- I'm an elementary education major. I also loved the staff as they were very opening and accepting, always willing to listen and help. Not to mention the amazing connections I made!

What I wish was different

While there the kids attended three sports- golf, tennis, and swimming- and I just wish communication between these leaders were better. These are people who are trained in their sport and not necessarily in child instructions so there was a bit of tension there too. Overall great job though!

Advice

Always be professional, you never know which interaction could lead to future jobs or better connections.
