Passionate camp counselor makes a journey to Yosemite
Kamryn is no stranger to the outdoors. When she isn’t doing school
work or writing in her travel blog, Kamryn is a camp counselor for foster kids
in Marble Falls. Serving as a mentor all summer, she spends time hiking, zip
lining, and playing on the ropes course with the campers. She says the opportunity to be a counselor
this summer has given her experiences she thought she would never be able to
do, like being certified in archery! A treasured memory Kamryn from the camp is drawing stars on the concrete in chalk so that one camper's mother,
who passed away, could see the stars from heaven.
With her degree in public relations, Kamryn hopes to be an
advocate and voice for children in foster care. She says her love of
communicating with others will hopefully bring her to a career where she can
speak about things she is passionate about. Her love of speaking is what piqued
her interest in debate, an interest she has had since high school. She is
currently on the debate team at Texas State and loves it so much she has even
enrolled herself in a debate course for the fall semester.
Kamryn is excited to combine her love for the outdoors and talking
to people and explore Yosemite National Park. This girl cannot get enough of nature!
