What do Camp Counselors do?

The most important out of all Camp Counselor duties is to ensure campers are safe at all times. You�ll be responsible for overseeing their activities and ensuring they do not get lost or hurt. The job duties of a Camp Counselor include planning summer camp games, educating children and teenagers and setting up equipment. Being reliable and able to build good relationships with children are two essential traits of a Camp Counselor.
