Cooking in the Kitchen? Who knew it could be this fun!

If you’ve been following the Camp Robindel social media over the past year you might have noticed a new trend in how they feature their kitchen staff and highlight their culinary experience.  We were curious to hear more about their motivation to do this and what they’ve learned in the process that other camp owners and directors can learn from.  

We are happy to have Jolly Corley from Camp Robindel as our guest for today.
