Eva has been an absolutely amazing co counselor on our specialty group. Eva is one of the important reasons I enjoy going into work everyday! She is energetic, kind, supportive and extremely helpful. I am very thankful to be working with Eva, she is an amazing counselor - Nate Ramos
Matt is phenomenal. I feel like my kids are spending a day with family when I leave them with Matt. He genuinely cares about their well being. He has just the right personality and attitude for early childhood care. My kids adore Matt and look forward to seeing him. Quite possibly their favorite teacher. I too find Matt to be a cheerful presence and I hope Wheeler recognizes him for all his adeptness and devotion. - Kendra Maciel
You guys have been such great co-counselors I could not ask for anyone better! Not having to worry about your peers is by far the best feeling as a '"leader". I have had by far the easiest session of my 3 year experience at wheeler and it definetly has a lot to do with your work ethic. I can not express how much you guys have made this experience enjoyable and I am forever greatful to get to know you guys and get to learn more about each of you. - Caleb
Caleb has been a great leader of middle 3! As a new staff member, I was quick to find a role model in him and how he interacts with the campers. - Sara Santoro
I’ve seen Quinn make great connections with the campers and always is there to help them! I really enjoy working with her and watching her make camp even more fun for the campers! :) - Sara Santoro
So many great things to say about Kyle. Kyle is wonderful, cool, kind, smart, funny, and stylish. Kyle is the realist and can defuse any situation at the snap🫰🏼of his fingers. Hands down 🤲🏼 Kyle deserves a division leader award and is the Captain America of Wheeler Summer Camp!☀️ - Benjamin Mancini
Nate has been so helpful during camp! He’s always making jokes and staying positive. He will do whatever he can to cheer up those around him (counselors AND campers). Overall he’s a great co-counselor and I look forward to working with him for the rest of summer. W counselor with infinite aura. - Eva
Blake, Nate, & Bella - These jewelry making counselors did such a great job of bringing the fun!! My daughter, Drew, was hesitant to start a new camp but everyday she came home with silly stories, new songs, and genuine love for her counselors. Thanks for everything - can't wait for next year! - Jill Henley
I miss working with Lexi a lot, and it has been amazing to see the leader that she has quickly become. She is the backbone of Upper and I am so proud of her. She works hard every day and I want her to be recognized for it. Thank you Lexi, keep up the amazing work! 😊 - -NB
Kelsey is such a positive force at Wheeler. She deserves the biggest of shout outs. She is amazing with the kids, so kind, and they love her. Even when she is not with a nature group, she is always helping out campers and groups that need it. She is amazing for that! She even spent a lot of time with one particular camper that needed the support and I can’t thank her enough for how much she helped today. Thank you for your amazing work! - -Nate Botelho

I saw Evan do something great today and wanted to shout it out! During Tennis, Evan saw a camper sitting on the bench upset and not wanting to participate. He talked with her and, by the time I came back a few minutes later, she was happy, smiling, and ready to participate again. It is those things that matter. Thank you Evan! - -NB
