What’s your age?
21
Where are you from?
Harrow, London, England
What university/school do you attend? What major?
St Mary’s University College London. I study History & Philosophy
What’s your favorite country/state?
My favorite country other than England and the US is Ireland! It’s a beautiful place where I have a lot of family! I just love it there! My favorite state is of course New York and Long Island and NYC in particular!!
What’s your favorite camp activity and why?
Mmmmmmm… there are so many great activities at Camp DeWolfe it’s hard to choose. Although I feel bad for not saying formation or the Long Island sound activities however I really enjoyed evening activities such as Animal Hunt. I always felt they were the best time for the whole camp regardless of what cabin you were in to unite as a camp family.
What are you most looking forward to about next summer and why?
I’m looking to seeing old and new faces!! Both campers and councilors of course! It will be good to meet people I met last year and recapture the great times we had last summer, but it will be even better to meet new people and hopefully make new memories!!!
What’s your favorite camp core value (community, Christian Formation, Developing Leaders or Natural Setting) and Why?
Again it is so hard to pick a favorite!! I would say community though! As I mentioned before it will be great to meet old and new friends! Camp DeWolfe is such a special place to live and work at with amazing young people as well as brilliant staff and guests from the diocese. This is what makes our unique community the best thing about Camp DeWolfe’s summer programme.
What’s your dream job/vocation/calling for life? Although I haven’t decided exactly what it is want to do I am sure that I would like to one day work full time with the disadvantaged youth – it is so important to give back.
