What is your name?
Jack Ryan
How many years have you been at camp?

What do you do in the camp “off season?” (e.g. job, school)
Right now I’m attending Oberlin College and am incredibly busy. I play on the school’s Ultimate Frisbee team, ranked #12 in the country and we are currently vying for a spot at Nationals in May. After school gets out and before camp begins, I’ll be working in the US Senate under the Secretary for the Majority. I also write a lot of poetry in my free time.
What are you most excited to do at camp this summer?
I’m really excited to see a lot of the campers that were in my cabins last year and catch up with them. Talking to returning campers on the first day of camp is such a fun time because you can tell they’ve been counting down the days until camp starts for a while. Watching as their excitement to be here rubs off on new campers is also a really unique experience. Activities-wise, I’m really excited to lead and lifeguard trips to the local swimming holes, Busted Rock and Big Eddy. As late July and August give New Hampshire a bunch of 90°+ days, there is just nothing like diving into the “refreshing” mountain water.
