• Really?

  we make an article about counselors who dedicate so much time to campers for $150 for two months and then show gratitude with hot dogs and burgers?

  hello!?!? what are they thinking? as the staff sit and enjoy themselves, the kids are left alone in the bunk. you cant expect to invite every staff member to a grand BBQ and not expect the staff to totally abandon the kids!! these are the responsible persons that we are entrusting our kids to?!?! something has to be done about this! what if there was a medical emergency in a bunk at that time?! who would be there to be made aware of it? where is the concern for the well-being of our children?

    i agree totally with you that what i was thinking.

  • from a staff member

    stam for your info every part of camp is supervised 24/7. that includes shabbos friday night, staff events and yes even the grand staff BBQ were “all the staff
    ” were by.

    even during this BBQ there was the OD on the hill (like every night) and as well staff were taking shifts staying by the bunk houses.

• lol

  David your the best.

• Sechel, people

  Seriously #8?
  They are running this camp like, forever.
  Don’t you think that just possibly, maybe, by some craaaaaazy chance they have this covered?

  I personally know of several counselors that are not in any of the pictures so I am going out on a limb here and guessing that they had the brains and responsibility to rotate the supervision.

  #12: seriously!
  are you a parent?!
  and by the way this website is not meant for ppl with attitude , rather for ppl up to discussion
  and i personally and i know more then several counselors that agree with me (and who stays during staff trip ….????)
  to # 10 : stam for your info… your wrong

    Ur probably not gonna c this but whatever.
    unfortunately you are the wrong one here as I personally saw them save food for the staff on the hill as well I personally saw the head staff arrange for a switch (like u know changing of the guards)

    And regarding staff trips indeed they have that covered as well.
    So don’t worry.
    And if you have any questions feel free to call camp office. They don’t bite
