“I originally applied to be a volunteer at a special event. I was still new to the area and I was trying to meet people and thought volunteering would be a good way to do this. At the event, I met the School Age Child Care and Camp Director, who talked to me about working before and after care during the school year. I had volunteered working with kids before doing community service with my church. This past year, I worked before and after care at McGinn Elementary School and this is my first summer as a camp counselor. I like working with the kids. Making them have fun is my favorite part of the job. I also like the people I work with. I’m friends with the people I worked with at McGinn and I’m making new friends with the other camp counselors.”
