This past summer I worked at a summer camp for children and adults with all types of Special needs/ disabilities. I was at that camp fro three months and the work was 24/7; I, along with the other amazing staff, were there to give care givers and families a break, but what I quickly realized is that we were actually there to create memories and laughs for these campers. I found the happiest smiles in these campers and wish to continue to do this for more than just a summer.
