    Camp and the White House

    It’s not uncommon for people to work at Camp and then go off to do unique and interesting and impressive things. Like colleges and universities, we have a vast alumni network that stretches across the globe and includes a plethora of interesting jobs. But what might be a little less common, is to have a staff member get an internship with the White House after interviewing from her room at Camp, working at the White House, and then coming back for another Summer at Camp. Claire Bradley, a counselor turned assistant village director, went from sunscreen, bug spray, chapel, and pool time to dressing in suits in the White House while working for the Office of the First Lady. Now, she’s back at Camp again this Summer and we talked about her unique experience in my office for a new episode of the Lookout podcast.

Listen to Joel Sieplinga, CEO of Camp Tecumseh, interview Beth Wright.
