Learning how to be a great co-counselor will be one of the most important life skills you take away from camp. Here’s how to do it.

Welcome to episode 19 of First Class Counsellors! 

One of the best parts about camp is that we get to live and work with people that can become our nearest and dearest friends. 

However, to get to that point, you have to understand that it takes work, and it’s not always easy.

The camp job can be hard. Working and living with the same people is sometimes HARDER. This isn’t a group project. You may have 2 whole months with these people and even when it gets hard, it’s still your job to be good to each other. 

A good co-counseling relationship will inevitably mean that the campers have a good week, and of course, that’s what we want.

On this episode of First Class Counselors, we give you the tools to not only be an incredible co-worker at camp, but a great co-worker for the rest of your lives.

Tune in to this episode to hear about:

• How to support the mental, emotional and physical health of your Co 
• How to support your Co in their big moments to step up and take leadership
• Tips for keeping each other accountable for doing the best possible job you can
• What do you do if you don’t like your Co? What if you HATE them?
• How to support the rest of your co-workers in the everyday places at camp

We hope you enjoy this episode, and most importantly, find it useful!
