How many summers have you been at camp?
I have been at camp for 8 summers.

What cabin were you in during the summer of 2015?
I was in Cactus during the summer of 2015.

What is your favorite part about being a counselor at CRC?
My favorite part about being a counselor at CRC is having the opportunity to help give my campers the same amazing camp experience that my counselors gave me.

What was your favorite memory from the summer of 2015?
My favorite memory from the summer of 2015 had to be Kahuna Day. Kahuna Day was one of my favorite days of camp as a camper because it is a day that is all about spirit. This year I got to be an advisor for the Grateful Dead with Sydney Karel and Jessica Cohn as the captains. It did not matter to us that we did not come in first because all three of us had such a fun day with each other and the rest of the team!

What is your favorite camp memory of all time?
My favorite camp memory was my Lakeview summer when my age group pulled an all nighter together. We ate lots of McDonald’s and watched the sun come up in the morning together. It was a great way to spend our last day together as campers at CRC.

What are you most looking forward to in the summer of 2016?
I am most looking forward to another solid summer with my campers and camp friends.

How do you stay in touch with your camp friends during the year?
I stay in touch with my camp friends through our group text and Snapchat!

What do you do when you are not at camp?
When I am not at camp I am at college at the University of Michigan. At Michigan, I do my school work, I am in a sorority, and I run…like I do at camp!

Anything else you want to share with your Chippy family?
