The best thing you can do with your summer! - Photographer T Bar M Employee Review

Great community and support. The connections into a good christian community are fantastic.

It can be physically hard work for a small pay.

The job itself is very fun being outside all day. Getting to drive boats, work on the ropes course and getting to work on strengthen a relationship with a Christ if that’s what you’re looking for!

The leadership team is very selective and shows favoritism throughout the entire summer. If you are one of the ‘cool’ counselors, you have access to things others don’t, such as back rooms, extra snacks, leadership cabins. And if you want to move up past a Coach/Counselor level, they won’t move you to a higher leadership position unless you are friends with the people in charge. It was really disheartening when they preach acceptance but the community thrives with exclusivity and popularity competitions. They also do not compensate staff for nearly the amount of hours or work out in. I think it is a misuse of power to pay college students so low because they are promised a fun summer.
