This is my favorite place to be all year. You get to exercise all day while teaching kids all your favorite games from when you were a kid. The directors of the camp have organized everything so well over the years to make our job easier to focus on allowing the kids so that they have the best summer at camp.
What I wish was different
This year was a little more difficult than normal because of covid so hopefully with the vaccines getting out more and more camp will be even closer to back to normal this coming summer. Other wise I also hope the school district will let them extend camp to more weeks like it used to be in the past.
Advice
It takes a lot of physical activity so be prepared to take a power nap after getting off work at the end of the day. When you are at camp try and enjoy camp like you are a camper your self. You shouldn't try and be "cool" to get the kids to like you be goofy and silly and enjoy your self and they will follow having fun them selves.
