Proud Eagle Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Earlier today the program director from my council's camp called my house and left a message to the affect that they needed an archery instructor, because the current one had something come up and was going to leave, and that he would appreciate it if I called back. So this afternoon I called the camp office and spoke with the Camp Director. He offered to let me think about it for a couple days, but I told him I would have an answer this evening. So, I just got off the phone with the program director. I start work as soon as I can wrap up some loose ends in Lousiville and get to RCM. This will be both my first experience as an archery instructor, and my first experience on camp staff. I will likely be leaving in a couple days, so I am afraid I will miss this place until at least the latter part of July, or perhaps even until August. In the mean time, if anyone has any tips, suggestions, advice, etc, I would greatly appreciate it. I hope everyone has a great summer. I know I certainly plan to.

EagleInKY Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Proud Eagle - Is this for CCC? We'll be there in just 2 1/2 weeks. I hope to see you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPwannabe@137 Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Way to go. I served on BSA camp staff for 4 years and my fellow staffers all say the same thing: it's like military service. You will have fun, get fustrated, hate your job, and have found memories for the rest of your life. Enjoy and bring lots of extra socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud Eagle Posted June 9, 2004 Author Share Posted June 9, 2004 No, I won't be a Camp Crooked Creek. I had spoken with the camp director there several months ago during a visit to the council office, and I had the opportunity to take a staff position, however I did not do so. The position I am taking is at Camp Roy C. Manchester, on Kentucky Lake. Perhaps our paths will cross at some future juncture, but it will not be at CCC this summer. Extra socks? Makes sense I suppose, though I don't think I would have thought of it. Thanks for the tip.(This message has been edited by Proud Eagle) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleInKY Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 Beautiful area you are going to. I've never camped at Manchester, but I hear it's great. I love Ky Lake & LBL. You're real close to my original hometown (Murray). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
