Camp people have this saying, Kerrie shares, we live ten months just for two. That s how special camp is to us. Kerrie has participated in camp every year since she was 16 years old, making this her 26 th camp summer. She brings a wealth of experience and talent. A graduate of Bridgewater State University, she holds a B.S. in Physical Education with a concentration in recreation. Her work experience includes a wide spectrum of summer camps, from religious residential to outdoor day camps, from economically disadvantaged to private affluent camps. Camp is camp, explains Kerrie. It is a world where kids can discover themselves, make lifelong friendships, and develop into the people they were meant to be. This type of environment suits Kerrie well, since she is a natural people person. Kerrie loves sports, camping, hiking, and anything outdoors. She thrives on cultivating this same passion for a healthy, active, outdoor lifestyle in each of her campers. My experiences with camp have been incredible, exclaims Kerrie. My goal is to give each of my campers the same wonderful experience. LET'S CONNECT!
