A Counselor’s Typical Day
Eastwood’s professional and friendly staff spends its summer living, eating, teaching, coaching, and playing with our campers. The typical day begins at 7:30 a.m. and lasts until at least 9 p.m., which is bedtime for the youngest campers. Cabin staff members live in cabins with approximately 10 campers and 2 other staff members.
While your days are busy and filled with activity, Eastwood provides its staff with ample time off to recharge. There is no better place to be during the summer than central Maine, which in addition to its natural beauty, offers an abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities to take advantage of each summer.
