ESF’s adult staff are living examples of selflessness and unconditional love. Our counselors, coaches, and directors lead by example, inspiring campers through their positive behavior and dedication. On the last day of camp, it’s common for campers to ask their favorite staff member for a keepsake, like a name tag or ESF shirt, as a reminder of the summer.
