Last year I worked at a summer camp during June, July, and August.
I had a lot of fun working at the summer camp.
I worked with a group of kids that are from the inner city. Some of the kids had never been camping before in their lives. I earned extra credit for college working with the kids. The camp had about 200 inner city youths and there were 10 kids in each one of the outdoor cabins. Each one of the cabins was assigned a counselor and I was the counselor for the f bunk. I had 10 boys that were 12 and 13 years old. The boys were rowdy and rambunctious, but they never caused too much trouble. The biggest problem we had all summer was with the climate control in the cabins. Each one of the cabins was equipped with a ductless Heating and Cooling system. We ran the ductless cooling system at night when the kids were sleeping. It was still warm and muggy inside of the cabin on some nights, but most of the kids did not complain. One kid from the city was unhappy with the temperatures. The kid complained that he was hot and suffering from heat stroke. There’s no way he could have been suffering from heat stroke. It was at the most 80° inside of the cabin instead of 73. The kid was convinced that he needed to go home instead of staying for the whole summer. We let the kid call his folks and they had to drive out to the country to pick him up. We don’t keep anyone at the camp against their will. They can leave whenever they want.
