One of last year’s Camp Assistants shared about their experience: “I loved working with each and every student! My favorite parts were bonding with each student individually and learning about their backgrounds and hobbies. I also loved getting to learn and getting to know the other assistants and teachers! I definitely made some lifetime friends. Overall, I loved every bit of Bright Lights.”
