As many of the people around me know, I am serving a year with AmeriCorps. It's like PeaceCorps for the states, although autocorrect still does not believe AmeriCorps is a word. That is beside the point. My service falls directly under Camp Fire USA. I LOVE my job. I left a supervisor position with double the pay for this, and I don't regret it.
The staff at CF are more of a family. Whenever a member leaves or it is someones birthday the "family" pitches in a few dollars to get them a gift card to their favorite restaurant or store. Heck, even lunches are chipped in for.
It's been a confusing, but wonderful transition to a business where every person will say good morning as well as goodbye. I've been asked more times if I want something from a particular restaurant than I've ever actually eaten out.
I wish I had more time to share more about this great group, but I just wanted to share how awesome they are.
p.s. Search "Camp Fire USA - Heart of Oklahoma."
