Why do campers help clean the bathrooms?
We believe that service is an important value. Campers who learn the value of service at camp will transfer that understanding to home, school, and community. At Camp Echo, campers are assigned to different service tasks each day on a rotating basis. Some campers are waiters. Others help clean the public areas of the cabin they live in. And others help pick up litter, sweep, or tidy up one of twelve areas around camp — including the bathrooms. Staff members supervise and/or assist with all service tasks.
