Never before have I been in a position where I’m working with people I respect as much as I do here, and I think that has so much to do with the fact that the people who come and work here do it because they want to, not for any other motive. The people who I’ve had the opportunity to meet and become close with them, I’ve just had a blast. The fun really doesn’t stop once you’re done being a camper.

What You GetAs a former FCC counselor, I can attest to the profoundly positive impact that role played in my life. Not only do you develop life-long relationships with staff and campers, but you learn ever-important soft skills through managing teams and navigating tough situations. It provides the perfect foundation from which any career can be built.
