COUNSELORS, College staff, AND VOLUNTEERS
COUNSELORS
Camp Impact counselors range from high school freshmen to graduating seniors. Each counselor is selected through an application process in which he or she answers questions regarding their personal experiences in caring for young children.
Our counselors have the opportunity to dedicate themselves to affect change in the lives of the children they serve. The energy and eagerness of the campers coupled with the reality of their upbringings creates a physically and emotionally exhausting week, for campers and counselors alike. You will go to bed late, you will wake up early, dance until your legs feel like Jello, sing until your voice is raspy and give each camper your all every single day. On the last day of camp, when your campers say they never want to leave, you will know you have genuinely impacted their lives in a positive way. Though you will encounter highs and lows, Camp Impact is undoubtedly one of the most rewarding and valuable experiences you will ever have. You will forever remember the laughs, friendships and memories made in that week.

COLLEGE STAFF
Our college staff play a pivotal role at Camp Impact, providing essential support that is integral to the success of our daily operations. They are not just facilitators of activities; they are the backbone of our camp, ensuring that each day runs smoothly and every camper has a memorable experience.
As facilitators, our college staff are responsible for organizing and overseeing a wide range of activities. From arts and crafts to sports, science experiments to outdoor adventures, they bring each activity to life with their energy, creativity, and expertise. They ensure that all materials are prepared, safety protocols are followed, and that each camper is engaged and enjoying themselves. Their role is crucial in creating an environment where fun and learning go hand in hand.
Beyond the realm of activity facilitation, college staff serve as mentors and role models for our counselors. They offer guidance, share their experiences, and provide support to help our counselors grow both personally and professionally. This mentorship is invaluable as it helps inculcate a sense of responsibility, leadership, and empathy in our counselors – qualities that are essential for their roles at camp and beyond.
Our college staff also play a significant part in fostering a positive camp culture. They lead by example, demonstrating the values of Camp Impact such as teamwork, respect, inclusivity, and kindness. They are instrumental in building a community where everyone feels valued, understood, and connected.
