They ominously say that you never really leave Park West…

But I can say that I’m glad to be back! After moving back to Chicago from the DC area a couple years ago, I was excited to work at camp last year after a long time away from Park West. My return to Park West as an adult last year was special; I loved learning from the teachers, staff, parents, and children during my time in camp just as much as I remember loving learning from my time in JK. At Park West, I’ve found exploring others’ ideas as an adult to be as rewarding as it was exploring my own ideas as a child, so I’m looking forward to experiencing the Park West philosophy at Camp Sunshine again.
