• Assistant Director

  Over four summers at KidRealm camps, I rose from Counselor-in-Training to Assistant Director. KidRealm camps, for children ages 8 to 12, are unique and creative "thinking theme" camps with themes including Young Wizards, Young Explorers, Time Machine, Science, and the Renaissance. These camps were high-energy and attended by children of all backgrounds including many who had learning disabilities. I used creative skills to devise original games and activities and taught these to groups of 20 to 30 children. I helped children learn to value healthy competition while dealing with the disappointment of losing. I managed the CIT program and supervised groups of 6 to 12 CITs ages 13 to 15 years. I collaborated with other counselors and camp managers to tackle problems and assure smooth camp operations. I helped run the camp store setting prices on merchandise, assisting camper customers, and completing sales. Show less
