Ultimately it is the Camp staff who create the caring environment for your child. Every counselor is selected for his or her ability to establish and maintain a caring rapport with children. Many of our staff have been at Pine Hill several summers and have documented training and experience in their specialty. Prior to the opening of Camp, all counselors come together for an intensive orientation and training session conducted by the Directors, Head Counselors and consultants experienced in group dynamics.
Senior counselors are college students and teachers.
A few former CITs , now high school juniors or seniors, are chosen as junior counselors. A staff of experienced Head Counselors work closely with counselors and campers. Owners and Directors Frank and Carolyn Price established Pine Hill Day Camp in June, 1976. Today, Frank, III is married and working at IBM in Lexington, Kentucky, while Ed is a graduate student in California. Although they are away much of the time, they remain actively involved in the Camp.
