MEET OUR CAMP COUSELORS
At the Walking G, just like campers, counselors are a huge part of the Walking G family. Our counselors are required to complete our Counselor Training Program and have been selected for being responsible, optimistic, and love of kids and animals! It is often difficult to determine counselors from campers here as they all have so much fun together! Most of our counselors are former campers who enjoy returning to the ranch each year!
