Caroline Avinger, 20, was born and raised in Nashville, TN and will be a junior at Wake Forest University next fall! As a student, she participated on the 2018 Iceland trip and absolutely fell in love with all things Moondance. Caroline is a previous counselor at Camp Merrie-Woode and spent last summer living and working as a server in Big Sky, Montana where she reconnected with her love for the outdoors! On campus in Winston Salem, she is a member of the Reformed University Fellowship Ministry Team, a part of the Tri Delta sorority, plays on the club lacrosse team, and volunteers as a tutor with the Office of Community Engagement. Caroline’s vibrant energy, compassion, and amazing character are going to leave a huge impact on her students as she leads them out of their comfort zone and into the moment this summer!
Meghan Keeler, 22 grew up in Columbus Ohio and is a Senior majoring in Tourism Management at the University of South Carolina. On campus, Meghan serves as a marketing intern for Undergraduate Admissions, a peer consultant at the Student Success Center, and is an ambassador for the College of Hospitality, Retail and Sports Management. This past summer, Meghan worked as a Kamp Kiawah Counselor where she got to facilitate outdoor games, outdoor activities, and fun! Meghan’s special ability to lead with compassion made her application stand out, which paired with her passion for working with young people will make her an outstanding leader! Meghan is excited to contribute to the Moondance culture and to help her students dare to be uncomfortable. This summer in British Colombia, Meghan will change lives!
Charlie Stelnicki, 24, was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois and graduated from the University of Michigan with a B.A. in Political Science and a minor in Environmental Science. Since his senior year in Ann Arbor, Charlie has held a number of different jobs including: volunteering for political campaigns, working as a kayaking guide on the Chicago River during COVID, and serving as a Staff Assistant for U.S. Representative Raja Krishnamoorthi. He credits Camp Deerhorn, a summer camp in Rhinelander, Wisconsin that he attended since 2009 and later where he returned to work as a counselor, for instilling his love for the outdoors! We are so excited to see the impact that Charlie’s intentional leadership style will have on his students this summer. Welcome to the Moondance family, Charlie!
