From A Camp Leader's Point of View

camp leadersWe have heard a sound never before heard at Blue Star Camps: silence. We are the only people living on our hills (Rachel in Teen Village, and Jillian on Senior Girl Hill), except for a few mice that have not paid their tuition for the summer and are our current cabin-mates. (Don’t worry SG, no mice in your cabins! I checked…) We have learned so much about what goes on behind the scenes in order to get camp ready for the campers… now that we’ve created health center files for almost 800 campers, and put together FOUR rolodexes (who still uses rolodexes?!?!) for the main office, we are sooooooo ready for the campers to get here and for the summer to get rolling!

We’ve had a blast bowling with the specialty and support staff, and have gained a new respect for the WFRs after witnessing the intensity of the WFR course. Rest assured, you are definitely in good hands with these WFRs! (For those of you who don’t know, WFRs are Blue Star’s emergency responders.)

Now that the staff t-shirts have arrived and the campsites have been cleared, June 12th can’t come soon enough! We’re ready for campers to fill the empty cabins, get into their options, and enjoy camp!
