Kristy Drost grew up in rural Eastern Ontario. Her first summer job was working at an overnight United Church camp near Ottawa. It was at camp that she discovered her love for the outdoors and working with children. After graduating from Fleming College, Kristy moved to Southwestern Ontario where she met her husband and started a family. Over the past 15 years she has been working in outdoor education and camping, including directing a year-round children’s camp and designing outdoor experiential learning programs at a private school. Now that Kristy has returned home to Eastern Ontario with her family, she is excited to continue sharing her passion and skills as the Director of Camp Awesome.
