As a general counselor you, along with two or more co-counselors, will live in a cabin with up to 13 campers. You will be a friend, a listener, a teacher and a role model. Above all you must be motivated, patient and flexible.During the days you will lead or assist up to six, hour-long activity periods. Meals are served 'family style' in cabin groups.The evening is a time for all of camp to come together for 'mock rock', 'skit night' a 'feather fire' or a variety of other all-camp activities. Counselors lead their campers back to their cabins each night no later than 10pm.During Camp Tanuga's traditional seven-week residential program, all 'general' counselors should expect to go on a camping trips.
