After Camp Stories: ThreeSixtee

I was excited to hear I would be returning to camp spin off as a T.A. This was a great experience for me and the students to have an opportunity to do what we are so passionate about.  I enjoyed watching all the kids learn and improve their skills as DJ’s. It was also great […]

After Camp Stories: Campers

  I started going to Camp Spinoff in 2013. 2015 was my third year, and it was by far the best year yet. From the late-night conversations in my cabin to the pool parties, this year was amazing. At the beginning of the week we went through ice breakers, got our swag bags, and watched […]

After Camp Stories: Jayceeoh

From Boys & Girls Club To Camp Spin Off

I learned about Camp Spin Off from my Boys & Girls Club. I always wanted to learn how to Dj, so as soon as I turned 13 I asked the teen director (Clarence) to teach me. I got the hang of it pretty quick, but I still had a long way to go. When I […]

Camp Counselor: DJ Lezlee Donates Traktor

DJs are not always known for their acts of kindness, but some should be known. A very generous DJ by the name of Leslie Santos, or DJ Lezlee, was kind enough to give one of the campers a fully functioning and basically new, Traktor Kontroller.
