Sacrifices You May Need to Make for Your Campers

(Condensed from How to be a Great Camp Counselor)

If camp is for the camper, your social life comes SECOND to time spent with the kids.
If food runs short in the dining hall, you are the one to go without. Let the campers get seconds or desserts before you do.
If the campers are lined up, you are last in line.
If there is a fun activity going on, your job is to see that everyone in your cabin has a blast.
If there is a contest, step aside and let all the campers compete, even if it means your cabin may lose.
When meals are over, don’t stay to talk with other staff, move out with your campers.
