What's involved in being a hiking instructor at summer camp?
"I've always enjoyed heading off on adventures, so being hired for camps Outdoor Adventure Department was the best fit for me. No day was the same.
We could be taking younger campers blueberry picking or off on overnight camping trips, to taking older campers on week long trips to Maine, or to hike Mount Washington. We would also run activities on camp, like animal care as we had bunnies and chicks, and ice cream making.
A lot of our campers live in the city, so it was awesome to be able to see them experience something new." - Rosie DB.
