Camp ANV’s #UnStungHeroes celebrates our camp staff and campers who have stood out this summer!
To kick it off, here is the FIRST of the UnStung: Kahlil Johnson -Camp ANV Camp Director!
Camp ANV: How many years have you worked at Camp ANV?
Kahlil Johnson: Three Years! My first two years were as a camp counselor and this is my first year as Camp Director.
Camp ANV: What are some of your hobbies or interests?
Kahlil Johnson: I love playing and watching basketball, reading books and I LOVE traveling all over the country and the world!
Camp ANV: What is your favorite place to travel?
Kahlil Johnson: My favorite place to travel to is Jamaica. My family is from Jamaica and it was really cool to visit! I got to see where my family’s culture comes from.
Camp ANV: What is your favorite age group to work with?
Kahlil Johnson: All of them! …but if I HAD to choose I would pick the younger campers. It’s just REALLY easy to make them happy! LOL! But the older ones sometimes have better conversation!
Camp: Big question — What does Camp ANV mean to you?
Kahlil: To me, it is a place for kids to come and feel safe with people they can rely on. Working with youth is self-rewarding. It’s not really like work.
Camp: Last question — How tall ARE you?! Lol!
Kahlil: Lol! I get that question ALL of the TIME! I am 6’7″.
Camp: Can you name four interesting things about yourself?
Kahlil: Ummm… my fingers are double jointed and can bend all types of weird ways. I’m the only one in my family not born in Jamaica. I played on the Cal Basketball team. I’m left handed.
Camp: Thanks so much for your time and for your care of our young ones Kahlil!
Kahlil: You’re welcome! It is my pleasure!
