Your Counselors Once Were Kids, Too!

Today we will have some fun observing several of your 2016 counselors as they looked as campers.  These guys really understand Kingswood, having witnessed camp from both the camper and staff perspective.  “Experienced Kingswood Hands” is one of our greatest assets.  

Peter, now an esteemed member of Varsity Club Presidential, once was a lowly camper enrolled in Klaus's tennis clinic.
