 Posted: Wed Mar 24, 2010 2:44 am Post subject: Ropes Course Counselor |
 |
|
Hey guys,
I wanted to apply to be a counselor, but by the time I got around to doing it, the applications were no longer available. I applied to be a ropes course counselor instead, although i haven't had any formal training (participated in a few a school but that's about it)
Any tips- do I even stand a chance? I have a good amount of experience working with children, but like I said that's about it. Have any of you guys done this? And if so, what's it like. Hopefully, if I receive this job, they'll also offer me an RA position since I live pretty far away. |

You definitely have a chance. Just the fact that you have *some* experience is probably more than a lot of people that start at the ropes course.
They can teach you what you need to know. |

They can "show you the ropes", so to speak. 
Sorry, had to.
