Kids Camp Personal Statement

252 Words2 Pages
I want to serve at kids camp because I love being around and working with kids and I think I could help them grow in their faith and help them have a better understanding of how amazing God's love for them is. I believe that talking about my own experiences and sharing what I know can have a positive impact on them and help them develop a stronger relationship with God. I also enjoy being around kids and the energy they bring to every activity, and I think it would be fun to interact with the kids and get to know them. I hope to work on talking to new people because talking to new people can be a struggle for me sometimes. I think it would be fun and rewarding to be part of a kids camp and to be able to create a supportive environment for them

Stories from the Civil War often are told from a man's perspective and rarely from a woman's point of view. In 1902, Susie King Taylor wrote her memoir, Reminiscences of My Life in Camp with the 33d United States Colored Troops Late 1st S. C. Volunteers, to explain her role in the war as a wife to a soldier, the regiments' laundress, a teacher, and a nurse. Taylor is famously known for being the first black nurse during the Civil War, but her memoir gives historians a closer look at her life and multiple roles during the war. In 1848, Taylor was born into slavery in Savannah, Georgia.

As a freshman, I wanted to feel like I could make Texas A&M my new home and feel accepted. However, I was horrified to go to Fish Camp and I was horrified to start school. But after Fish Camp, I was excited to make more friends and strengthen those that were made at camp. The reason I am applying to be a Fish Camp counselor is because I want to be able to make incoming students that felt the same way I did know that they are meant to be here.

I'm a cautious person. Before this summer I had never stepped outside of my comfort zone. The longest I had been away from my family was for a week in the fifth grade when my entire class went to camp, and even then I was surrounded by familiar faces and friends. That is why when I was awarded the honor to attend the American Legion Auxiliary Girls' State camp, I was wary of experiencing such a big change. After being dropped off at the MSU dorms on the first day I was left with a HUGE feeling of angst and dread.

I started 4-H as an incredibly shy third-grader; all of the older members were so intimidating, and I had no idea where I would fit in. It didn't take long before 4-H changed my life because every single meeting, activity, and service project was geared towards all ages. I suddenly wanted to be a part of every service project my club did, and this sparked my passion for finding new ways to help my community and world. 4-H has helped me learn that I can lead groups well and in an organized fashion; this has lead to the success of the numerous service projects I've initiated with my club and community.

I usually try to volunteer at places where I feel I can have the most impact on people and people can have the most impact on me. Therefore, I decided the best place for me to volunteer was at the Boys and Girls Club, which enables me to interact with kids from different cultures, social backgrounds, and financial backgrounds. I get a chance to impart me into them and have them impart to me. As I volunteer at the Boys and Girls Club, my duty was to help the kids learn how to read and write, which I feel is the most important thing to have to assist you in learning. I also serve them lunch, help clean up, and plan events for the students to make their Boys and Girls Club experience memorable.

I am qualified for being an Outdoor School counselor since I have a great energy and a passion for working with students. I consider myself a charismatic leader in everything that I do. For instance, I volunteer to coach a girl’s softball team for Richland Area Softball Association (RASA), which has given me an opportunity to learn and grow as both a leader, and as an individual. It has put me in a hefty position of leadership, which I have taken in full stride since I’ve begun coaching the team. Every practice, I watch over the team to see if the girls are where they should be in order to maximize their athletic potential, but to also ensure their safety as they play.

Reflecting on my educational and practical experiences, I appreciate the infinite influence that teachers have on children. I realise that children will take the skills and knowledge learnt in the classroom and use it throughout their lives. I know a teacher has to deal with many daily pressures and challenges, in the classroom. However, I feel I require the skills needed to deal with these challenges. As a teacher I hope not only to be an educator but a positive role model, whom the children can look up to and trust.
