At Liberty Lake, we conduct intensive orientations prior to the beginning of Camp and provide ongoing training and feedback throughout the summer.

• Experience-If you've ever considering being a teacher or child-care professional, you'll find out if you have the patience, personality and skills for it.
  
• A Challenging and Rewarding Summer You'll Never Forget-People's lives change from their Camp Experience. There is nothing that is more rewarding than making a positive impact on the lives of young people. There's a reason that people come back to Camp summer after summer, and it's not for the money.

Counselor- (entering 11th or 12th grade students) Counselors are the "big brothers and sisters" of their campers.  Each group of children has one or two counselors as well as the Group Leader.  Much of the summer's success lies with the relationship between counselors and campers.  For most campers, great counselors = great summers. Counselors assist specialists during elective activities, and provide motivation and emotional support to the campers throughout the day.
