So most camps are over now the school year has begun.

Tell us about your camp adventure this summer.

Mine was good but boring and I didn't get to sing one song. They only sang like two the entire time.

I got back about a week ago and I've been trying to get back into a routine. It was a successful summer, happy campers and happy staff.

I'm back. I would say it was a great summer as far as my job goes. I learned a lot and succeeded at a job I have previously not done so well at. A lot of that had to do with being back at my home camp. And some from learning from past experiences.

I wouldn't say that this was my best summer socially. I did a lot by myself. So it wasn't bad, but just not particularly fun.

All in all, good and successful!

I'm back, won't be returning to that camp again next year. Can't work somewhere I can't trust the director, and they play games with people.

I'm back! There were ups and downs, but I'm glad I was there, and I'm glad I had the job I did, despite lower pay. The kids, the environment, the program... everything I hoped and dreamed of.

There are major changes being made to camp next year, and I'm going to need to do an internship for school, but I definitely plan to visit when I can over the summer!

I was back since late July-- my camp was only 1 week.

There were ups and downs like every summer- like 1 volunteer being kicked out of camp on Wednesday and didnt go home until Friday

My summer was interesting. It was stressful at times, crazy at times, amazing at times, and great at times. I feel like it was an ok summer overall. There were lots of issues with staff, I was sick in the middle of the summer, which was difficult, and there were some things that went wrong. But, in the end camp happened and the girls had a great time and that's all that matters! That's why we do it.
