Favorite memory:

I met my best friend when we were CITs together; the chants at Mound ‘Call Me Maybe’ dance and chants in the vans on the CITs day off, memories of love, laughter and friendship which has lasted a lifetime for me.Renata

Why I returned to camp:

Marist family, visiting old friends, showing my wife and children around Camp Marist, the place I went to as a child and the place in which I grew up and became a man. I have a profound love of Camp Marist and my desire for my children to experience Camp Marist and carry the Camp spirit in their hearts throughout their lives.Jorge

The friendships I made when I was a camper and more recently the bonds of friendship I have created as a staff member with both campers and staff. Cabin Life, international friends, there are multiple differences and yet at camp we all embrace the differences and become one family. The diversity of campers, staff and the freedom to be my true self.Hannah

These are just some of the reasons that make Camp Marist the place to be. There has been a great deal of research done regarding the benefits of working as a summer camp counselor. In fact, recently a number of articles have been written about how employers have begun to look at the role of a camp counselor. They see counselors as leaders, organized, role models, problem solvers, confident, individuals – the list could go on.
