Having done our Camp Counselors programme and a Trek myself I 100% endorse the coupling of the two! Trek America offers so much opportunity for CCUSA counselors to make the most of their grace period post camp:
- A way to experience the USA, not just see it - your always doing something fun or adventurous on a Trek, unlike other travel types where the most exciting thing you get to see is a mall (don't worry you can still see some of those too if you want!)
- Fun, like-minded people - Trek people are like camp people! Individuals who want to travel and have a good time and don't mind putting up a tent and cooking a dinner or two
- The 'group feel' - being small van tours it's like travelling with a group of friends as opposed to being a number on a bus
- Options - I love that you can choose what you want to do at different locations instead of all having to do the same thing
- Flexibility - Tour activities and schedules are moulded around the groups interest and aren't pre- determined, providing a perfect opportunity to see off the map locations and things that personally interest you
- Budget friendly - with the above in mind you are able to choose the activities that best suit your budget
- A born and bred USA tour leader - they know all the best stops and their still young and fun which makes all the difference
- Peace of mind - for counselors and their parents! By paying in advance you can rest assured knowing you're set to go, and your parents can too!
- Trek Live - Trek Live is your online Trek profile. You can also link it to your Facebook account and amongst other features it will automatically let all your friends and family know where you are during your trip
The only reason you would'nt have a good time on a Trek is if...nope I've got nothing! :p If you go with a positive attitude and are willing to lend a hand and do a few chores it will be the best pennies you've ever spent. Go on...do it!
