The Best Part of My Job

It is no secret that I love my job at Cho-Yeh. I love the people I met, the strangers that become family, the community and passion that surrounds camp. I love it.

But there is something I love more about my job, and that is the relationships I build with my kids.

When I was a camper at Cho-Yeh, I loved staying in contact with my counselors throughout the year. When I needed advice, they were always there. When I was excited, they shared in my joy. When I had a question, they did their best to answer it. They spiritually encouraged me, and were intentional about asking about my walk with God. They were my biggest role models. Now, as a counselor, I have the opportunity to be that person for over 125 girls every summer, and I am blessed to have those relationships continue with a few of my campers long past the summer. I am so joyed to be have these girls in my life, they are definitely the best part of my job!
