Faith couldn’t wait to be a Brownie Scout – and once she went to camp, she knew she’d found her real home…outdoors, on her own, making new friends, trying new things. Faith’s great pleasure is training camp staff to be the role models, the door openers, and the heroes to the youth who come to camp to learn who they really are.
With a 40-year history as a camp counselor, a camp director, a now a camp staff trainer, Faith enthusiastically believes the American Camp Association motto, “Camp Does Kids a World of Good.” Her passion for training is to do staff a world of good, as she knows, from experience, that staff often benefit from working with children, as much as the children do!
