Re: Camp tips-do you tip junior counselors took?

This is my DD's first year in camp and I totally forgot about tipping. She has 3 or 4 counselors and then there is the bus driver and the girl that helps out on the bus.

Do I tip them all? How much each?

Sorry to hijack your post!

I would say yes. I plan to tip everyone.

CITs, Counselors, Bus Driver, and Bus Counselor.

How much is a good question.

I was thinking somewhere between $25 and $50 each.

Maybe $25 for CIT and Bus
$50 for counselors.

But I usually way off with this stuff, so I am interested in opinions as well.

My kids go to a half day camp 9-12:00 M-F. She has 4 counselors and I'm going to give $25 each. I have no idea what is right but that's what I have budgeted : ).

I tip everyone that works with my kids..sometimes if they talk about someone a lot, even if they aren't theirs, I will give them a small tip too..I write notes..not sure if they all care, but I do! haha

Re: Camp tips-do you tip junior counselors took?

we always tipped everyone. The CIT's sometimes end up doing more work than the head counselors. My DD is a CIT for the first time this year and the head counselor got fired - so she is basically running the group. Also CIT's don't get paid so we always made sure to give to them because my DD always raved about the CIT's and seemed closer to them than the other counselors

I tip everyone from the kids group (counselor, junior counselor, assistant counselors & CITs) along with bus driver & counselor.
I dont typically tip the specialists (dance, arts & crafts, tee-ball, lifeguards, etc) but just got the suggested tip list and it does include them so I am on the fence
