I can not wait to be impacted by the kids and to watch them grow. I went as a camper and this is my first year as a counselor but I know something awesome is going to happen! Can't wait
I know this video is a little over a year old now, but wanted to comment anyway. I worked a handful of summers as a jr/support counselor from 2007-2012 or 13. This summer, I'm going back to the same camp to be a full counselor for the first time! I'm pretty excited, but also a little nervous. This video really helped though!
I was a camp counselor this past summer and it was my first time so I was totally lost. Had no clue what to do. These tips were very helpful. Now I will be more prepared for next summer!! God bless!!!!
Great list dude! As a fellow experienced camp counsellor I would like to add that being clear to kids is even better than being fun. They'll already think that you're the coolest dude around because you're their camp counsellor but being clear to them gains you alot more because they will respect you and the rules of your camp more. Lots of fun camping everyone!
I'm so glad I found this video! You have me so much encouragement you have no idea. I am about to be a music camp counselor for the first time ever next week and I'm excited but scared I won't be very good at it. Your video have me the confidence I needed to keep my head up! Thank you so much! :D I look forward to camp now! I will let you know how it goes :) I attended as a camper 4 years ago when I was almost 19 and I've tried to get in as counselor several years but it never worked out until this year finally!
My personal philosophy is 99% is all you need. You’re giving them your attention, your affection, almost everything you’ve got but that one percent is able to think about what you’ll do next and just breathe. 10 weeks is a long time to be active 24/7. Taking a tiny bit of your energy all the time is a great way to minimize your breaks and downfalls without effecting the campers.
I love how 14k of us are like:
I NEED THIS I NEED TO BE THE BEST COUNCILLOR!!!!!!!!
