A summer camp is only as good as its staff…and our staff is the best (if we do say so ourselves). Our counselors range in age from 18 to 26 years, and are carefully screened and trained. And with one counselor for every five campers, our staff truly gets to know each and every camper, making for a more richly rewarding experience for everyone. We are also very proud of the fact that more than half of our counselors return to us, summer after summer. This gives the kids a sense of continuity, and makes summers at Camp Half Moon feel more like home.

Plus our CIT program (counselors-in-training), for 16 and 17 year olds, gives select young adults the chance to learn and explore their own strengths and weaknesses while training with senior staff to become the counselors of tomorrow.
