Louis Stamoulis, Program Director
Louis is SO excited to be serving in the role as Program Director for the first time this summer! He has been attending MBC since he was 14 as a Crackle camper. Ever since he stepped onto the campground he knew it was a special place and that it would be near and dear to his heart for years to come. Now he is here serving every camper that comes down the dirt road, ready to give them the best week of their lives! Louis is a rising senior attending Quinnipiac University majoring in Health Science Studies. He is also planning on staying at Quinnipiac for graduate school while pursuing a masters program in Public Relations & Strategic Communications. He loves to golf, parade his luscious beard around, and root for his favorite sports team, the New York Giants (I know, gross.) Louis, along with every staff member, cannot wait for campers to arrive this summer and give them the same, if not better, experience than he had as a camper! LET’S GET HYPE !!! |
