Vinnie started volunteering with Camp Quality Eastern Ontario in the summer of 2015 as a Companion. It took all of a few hours for him to decide the magic of camp was incredible, and he would definitely be back for many summers to come. Since that first summer, he hasn't looked back - taking on numerous roles: companion, super companion, and the logistics organizer on the Camp Organizing Committee (COC) for the last 4 years. Vinnie is a Service Manager for a local Ottawa company, and looks forward to working with the COC to make camp memorable and fun for both the campers and volunteers. He enjoys being outdoors, relaxing around a campfire when possible, and helping out wherever he can. His favorite part about camp is seeing all of the campers and volunteers having a wonderful time singing and telling stories around the campfire! A good and loud campfire cheer always puts a smile on his face.
