My responsibilities were handling a cabin of 3-4 kids per every week for 3 weeks. Cleaning the cabin, taking the kids to the nurse for medication, making sure they had everything they needed (water, food, clothes, toiletries, and fun). Making sure they ate and watching over them for about 24 hours.

Keeping constant surveillance of these kids and making lasting memories with them and my co counselors. We followed a schedule everyday starting with a morning circle and ending with an evening activity before bed.
