You go out three times every two weeks with friends. If you don't stay home, a lot less money makes it into the bank. So it's quite possible you would contribute more significantly to the overall cost of your school and living expenses if you work at Makemie Woods. But really money shouldn't be the reason you decide whether or not to work at a Christian summer camp. Those same former staff members would tell you that the rewards far outweigh monetary gain, like helping children to see that they are good and important in a world that often seems to tell them otherwise, like making friends that quite literally last a lifetime.
Some folks even find their future spouse at camp.
