Usually camps "invite" returning staff back (that is, to reapply for their jobs) if they want to have them back; with your director resigning and a new one taking over, this process could be interrupted. If you have a higher-up to communicate with now, it's a good idea to send off an email saying "I really enjoyed working at camp, and would love to come back next summer"--so they know of your interest. Most likely, the returning staff will be sent applications (they're usually modified applications) sometime between January and March. If you haven't heard anything, don't hesitate to call anytime after the new year.

Hi. I worked in the Hill Country Texas in '07. We had a variety. These kids are very used to health care and know what to "expect" We had one severe scalp injury via EMS. Several sprains requiring xrays. One severe anaphylaxis of unknown origin. The Doc thankfully had epi and IM Benadryl on hand. After this I realized the EMS is volunteer and the closest real EMS with intubation equipment is 45 minutes away. I bet the kids parents - mostly Drs. don't realize this either. All we have is o2 and epi. God help us next summer!!!
