Summer Work Opportunity [SPRING2021]

Good morning!! See below about an awesome opportunity to work as a camp counselor this summer 


Hello Communication Sciences and Disorders Department:

 
 I hope all is well and that you guys are having a good semester.  I would like to take a moment to introduce myself.  My name is Whitney Civitts and I am the Assistant Camp Director at Camp Easterseals.  Camp Easterseals is an overnight camp that serves both children and adults with disabilities.  We offer our campers and staff an unique, fun, and supportive camp experience.  Many of our staff have called their time at Camp Easterseals a “Life Changing” experience. 
 
 We are currently hiring staff to join us for Summer 2021. (Per the Governor’s recent executive orders Overnight Summer Camps can open and operate starting May 1st) We like to reach out to majors that we have had former staff and volunteers study to see if you could share our information with your students to see if anyone is interested. 
 
 I have attached to this email our general information sheet  if you could share it with your students that would be great.  In addition, I am very open and willing to do a zoom chat with a class to talk about camp and show a quick video about use if you would like. 
 
Thank you for your time and support of Camp Easterseals and for sharing our information- Whitney Civitts
