Our Role Models
Camp Massasoit’s strength is its staff, which is professional, courteous, and genuinely interested in the development of the children who attend our camp. The majority of our counselors are college-aged adults who are preparing for careers in working with children. Many of our staff are Camp Massasoit alums, so they understand firsthand what makes a day camp both fun and educational.
