We are incredibly excited to introduce the 2024 Division Leaders (DLs)— 18 Scaticonians who combined have spent 150+ summers at Scatico!
Division Leaders serve as a “head counselor” for each group in camp. They live in cabins with their campers, travel to virtually all of their activities with them, plus oversee the other counselors in the group. Typically, there is one DL per division, but this year we are lucky to have Co-DLs for the Juniors and Freshman, the two youngest groups in camp!
Get to know this year’s team below!

My favorite activity at camp is Rope Burn and a packed GS on a hot day. I love the Rope Burn because I have been obsessed with campfires and nature since I was a camper and have mastered the technique to the perfect Rope Burn fire. And… there is nothing better than pulling the audible on playing basketball in the blazing, hot sun, going to the lake, and seeing that every other lower hill division has made the same choice. With campers on the magic carpet, getting launched 40 feet in the air on the rave, or with a swarm on pool noodles chatting. Life doesn't get better than that.
