Change is never easy…

Change is never easy, whether we want it to be or not. You can plan and plan and think you are ready but you never are really ready.

Summer camp has been the one constant in my life. Over the past 30 years – almost every summer has been spent at camp in one way or another.

Since moving to full time employment at camp in the late 1990’s I have learned many things, but one of the biggest is that change is never easy. Camp is one of the great jobs that allows for a different experience each day – including all of those days away from the summer as well.

You can never know what each day will bring, but you can only bring your best to each day. Being a steward for camp is the main thing – making sure that we leave it better than we found it. As challenges come to us, as camp directors, it is important to keep the best interest of camp at heart.
