I have always loved everything about camp and wanted to be involved but was not able to do so because I needed to just "work" in order to provide. Now I am in a position to have a career I want. Recently, I returned to school after a very long career in administration. With the hopes of getting involved with youth programs and camps as a new career, I am taking classes in child development and working toward my AA and than BA. I look through jobs regarding this type of career, it appears for any position, I need some type of experience. I am willing to do any job big or small, working with kids or administration? I am basically trying to "get my foot in the door" so I can start gaining some experience. I just don't know where to go to get this experience and I don't know if I am wasting my time because I am not young (43 years old but young at heart). I live in Los Angeles/Ventura County area. Any suggestions would be great.
