"Summatime"

It's getting to be that time of year when the semester is almost over and I have to start trying to figure out what I am going to do for the summer. I have a couple different options. There are two camps that I have the opportunity to work at. One is an all girls camp called Bridges that is two separate weeks in the summer. The other is a camp that I worked at this last summer called ZonaYuthKamp. This is just for one week in July and it is held in California.

Because I don't think I have the energy to work two camps this summer, I need to choose between the two. I will probably end up going with Bridges because of the pay and because I need the change in atmosphere. Bridges is going to be a great opportunity as well because it actually has to do with the field I want to go into. It is a leadership camp for high school age girls and it is an opportunity for them to build their self-esteem.

My ultimate goal is to someday open a youth camp that has this same leadership/confidence building atmosphere. I think it is so important for young teenage kids to have those skills before they finish high school and I want to do whatever I can to enable them.
