My Summer working as a camp counselor at Camp Wah-Nee in Connecticut - plus a little bonus footage from our time working with Camp Kesem Yale. Give this a thumbs up if you'd like me to make another video about camp :)
2018 was my third Summer working at camp, through the agency CCUSA (similar to Camp America - I have videos on my channel about how to become a camp counselor if you'd like to learn more) :) From colour war and sunsets on the lake to tie dye and star gazing, these are some of highlights from our home away from home. If you are considering applying for a job at a summer camp in the USA, I cannot recommend it enough. Ask any questions that you have about camp or being an international staff counsellor below and I'll answer them in my next video!

This video is fun personified! It honestly looks like you had the best time ❤️❤️❤️❤️ (& PUPPIES!!!!)

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

That's pretty much camp in a nutshell! (minus the exhaustion, which is harder to capture on film lol)

@jen-wk1bc 5 лет назад

didn’t think i’d find jade here ahh!! are you considering doing a summer camp?

@Lauu162027 5 лет назад

This is making me so emo about my own summer at camp 😭 thank you endlessly for inspiring me to go 💚

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

Ahh I feel you, editing this was legitimately hard because it gave me the biggest heartache and homesickness

Thank you Maddy!!

@elliewynhoven8586 4 года назад

Oooh Ally you've done it again. Sitting here crying reminiscing about my own camp counsellor memories from my past 2 summers. You capture the magic of camp and the pure joy we feel when we're there so beautifully!! So much love for you, your videos, and camp

@jamillacarr5977 5 лет назад

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

YAyyyy!! That makes me so so happy :) You're going to have the most joy-filled, character building and life changing experiences x

@user-sw7br2ov7u 5 лет назад

ally i just wanted to say thank u so much for your camp videos that gave me the finally push to apply to camp last year, i got hired almost a year ago and this summer has been the best 3 months of my life. anyone reading this who is on the fence about applying to work in a summer camp i cannot recommend it enough- its a lot of work but the people you will meet and the relationships you will create make it all so worth it.

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

AWW this made me SO happy to read!

@jessicacarriage 5 лет назад

I'm going to my first summer camp next year in Arizona and I can't wait! I love your camp videos!

@minalovesbooks 5 лет назад

Ahh, my camp season just ended last weekend and now your video is taking me back all over again! Looks like you had an amazing summer, Ally!

@oliviageller605 5 лет назад

This came up in my recommendations this makes me miss camp so so much. I’m going to be a counselor at my summer camp this year that I’ve been going to since I was little I can’t wait!

The greatest :) Thanks Sean xx

@tesniruby8614 5 лет назад

I don't know how I missed this video, but wow I felt like crying because you can just feel all the energy and happiness and love in all those moments. I was sad that this video wasn't longer when I first saw it, but I think it was actually the perfect length - what more is there to say, right?

@oliviacowie5791 5 лет назад

Your camp was completely different to mine but watching this video brought back all of the camp memories!

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

Aww I'm so glad!! What was yours like?

@bethanymac1438 5 лет назад

You’re making me so excited to do camp next year!! 😍 Would you recommend going to a job fair or just letting CCUSA place you? :) thanks

@Lauren-co9zs 5 лет назад

This is soo sweet Ally! Wish my camp had some of these freedoms this summer- glad you had a great time ❤️🛶

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

Aw thank you Lauren!!!!! Which freedoms are you thinking of? and which camp were you at?? ❤️

@Lauren-co9zs 5 лет назад

Ally Sheehan I was at Storer in Michigan. At my camp we couldn’t leave camp property even on our nights off (I only live an hour from camp), we had a lot of rules…some are where we could go on property during our time off & we couldn’t post pictures/videos of our campers. We had a lot of safety rules in the lake which I totally understand but it was hard to follow sometimes.

@aoife8664 5 лет назад

This looks so amazing! I've applied to be a camp counselor this year (thanks to you!!!) and I was just wondering what you do if your campers don't want to do an activity i.e. how do you get them to take part anyway?

@littlemissoptimism 5 лет назад

I just got accepted by CCUSA yesterday so this came at such a great time!

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

Congratulations!!! This is so exciting :) Let me know where you get placed!

@moiraward5334 5 лет назад

I'm looking for a summer camp, and stumbled across this video. It looks so fun! Should i go?

@julielopez7599 5 лет назад

I got to CCL(Camp Crystal Lake) in Florida but I love watching your videos 😁

@AllySheehan 3 года назад

ooh i love florida, i bet your camp is beautiful!

@naomidavv 5 лет назад

I’m starting my application for summer camp next year 😆 but I don’t have many activity skills 😅 do you suggest I learn some new skills? Your videos and insta make me so excited for camp!

@femkeborneman6697 5 лет назад

Hi Ally, what is your number 1 camp essential? And have you already made a decision about going back next year?

@BeckywiseTheDancingClown 5 лет назад

You holding that puppy at the start gave me the warm fuzzies!

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

THE PUPPIES WERE ALL NAMED AFTER NATIONAL PARKS AND THAT WAS YOSEMITE

@BeckywiseTheDancingClown 5 лет назад

That is so you!

@laurafarnan6413 5 лет назад

I'm applying to ccusa Ireland this week! (Mainly because of you) Any advice for my application or video?

@laurenw9868 5 лет назад

What are the showering and laundry facilities like? I have eczema so I need to use a certain laundry powder with my clothes. This may be the only reason holding me back applying to be a camp counselor!

@AmandaDucks 5 лет назад

💛💛💛

@TripsOnMe 5 лет назад

OMG! How many people are there at your camp?? It looks like it's a big crowd! I work at a small camp with only 200 people and I believe being a counselor at a camp like your is much different than the experience I get 😂 But camp is camp

@elysecater112 5 лет назад

was it hard to get your girls to go to activities because they were in the older groups and had done everything so much? i found that my girls had become a little jaded to camp. ps i became a camp counsellor because of you!! changed me for the better xx

@aradia2130 5 лет назад

What are the kids like that go to summer camp? (Kinda seems like a dumb question but 🤷🏼‍♀️) ✨💕

@sophiemae4042 5 лет назад

I currently have an application with camp America but just contacted this camp to see if they're hiring yet!

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

Hey lovely! It's best to go through the agency who will place you at a camp specifically for YOUR skills, talents, passions, personality and so on :) Trust their process, they'll find the perfect place for you

@hannahhdschk8635 5 лет назад

ahhh, this makes me wanna go as a camp counselor so bad!! but my english is probably not good enough and i'm bad at speaking to new people so definitely not sure haha

@alexh343 5 лет назад

I also work at a camp nearby to Wah-Nee and have actually been there for tournaments a couple of times! Camp truly is home away from home and this video makes me miss it. Will you be going back next year too?

@AllySheehan 3 года назад

wow awesome! what camp do you work at?

@jessicasawchuk3302 5 лет назад

Are you going back this summer?

@sophieholloway3704 5 лет назад

Are you going back to camp in 2019?????

@dorprz8401 3 года назад

Where did you make this amazing photo from the minature of the video? :D

@AllySheehan 3 года назад

Yosemite National Park :)

@stevenhayes5269 5 лет назад

Do you like summer camps or something? haha Right in the feels with the video!

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

nah mate not really hey

@alva958 5 лет назад

Hi as a general counsellor did you have a separate room in the cabin to the kids? Also what are the biggest drawbacks?- want to weigh up the pros and cons! Thankssss

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

Hi lovely! Do you mean drawbacks of doing camp? Or of being a general counselor?

@Shaifer 5 лет назад

hi i go to wahnee 10 4 2 wahnee we love you

@paigecunningham4049 5 лет назад

This was such a great video!! All of your videos inspire me to bite the bullet and go! I’ve been wanting to since I was 15, I’m now 21 and still would LOVE LOVE LOVE to go, but I’m afraid to because I’m in a happy relationship with my boyfriend of 4 years, and I’m afraid that me leaving to go to America by myself for 2-3 months will hurt our relationship, any advice on this?

@evemary 5 лет назад

Paige Cunningham This is a super hard decision. I understand how tough it is. I am in a happy relationship too and I went to the USA for 3 months to do an internship. It was tough but I had such a great time! When I came back, my boyfriend and I just went back to normal. The hardest part is saying goodbye but after that you will have the best time! You just need to stay in contact! FaceTime, messages and write letters!

@paigecunningham4049 5 лет назад

Eve Mary thank you!! This helps a lot. I think I will get there eventually, just need to have that kind of conversation, you know? Thanks for your advice 😁

@petrabrinkman505 5 лет назад

Awesome video! Were you a general or specialist counsellor this year? ❤️

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

Thanks lovely! I was a GC :)

@AllySheehan 5 лет назад

Although I did teach one period of cricket, which I'm very proud of ;)

@petrabrinkman505 5 лет назад

haha awesome! I'm hoping to be general next year :)

@Grace-nw2xx 5 лет назад

I’m speaking with an all girls camp and an all boys camp at the moment would it be weird for a girl to work at an all boys camp? There will be female staff but nowhere near as many as on a girls camp and I’m kinda scared 😂 I went to an all girls high school and don’t really have any friends who are boys so I think I’d be thrown in at the deep end

@AllySheehan 3 года назад

no it could be amazing!! did you go?

@Grace-nw2xx 3 года назад

@@AllySheehan I went to camp but neither of these two! I ended up at a co-ed camp in upstate New York 😊
