  Job Title:
 Day Camp Director


  Job Responsibilities:



 Hiring leaders, Running the shuttle, checking kids in and out, animal care, child care, child safety, planning chores and curriculum, running family night, reporting between Leaders and Lea Ann


  Summarize Your
Experience:



  I was the camp director, which means I supervised and ran the camp.  I was in charge of the leaders to make sure they were doing their jobs, and was the liaison between them and the owner.  I also ran public relations with the parents of the campers.  Finally, I was in charge of animal care.


  What I liked most about
the job:		 The things I enjoyed most were working with the animals and children at the same time, and teaching the children the correct way to care for these animals.


  Challenges on the job: Public relations with the parents was the hardest part of my job because many parents differed in their opinion about what is good and right for their child, and many were concerned about safety.
