Sara joined the staff of Camp Ondessonk August 22, 2010.  She has been working in the summer camp field since 1998 and has done almost every job at camp, from the kitchen to coordinating weekend and family programs, to managing stables.  Camp Ondessonk is her fifth camp, including camps in Colorado and New Jersey, and is also the largest.  Sara’s passion is using camp and horses to teach kids about themselves.  When she’s not at the barn, Sara enjoys paddling down the river or hiking with her dog, Aspen.
