  Double H Ranch, A SeriousFun Camp

  Jun 2022 - now

  Camp Counselor

  I volunteer as camp counselor during the summer and fall sessions as well as an adaptive ski instructor in the wintertime. At Double H Ranch we ensure that all children, no matter their medical diagnosis, are able to have safe fun and be a kid. We create an atmosphere of safety, fun, and support which allows campers to attend summer camp, something they otherwise would not be able to engage in due to the seriousness of their conditions. As a summer counselor I work directly with the campers, assisting them with medical or personal care, engaging with them at activity areas, encouraging them to challenge by choice, and creating the magic of camp for a weekend. During the fall session I also volunteer as a Family Pal and engage with not only the campers but their families too as they rotate through the different activities. In the winter I volunteer as an adaptive ski instructor teaching children of all ages and abilities how to ski. Show less
