Celeste Benson

ASSISTANT DIRECTOR

Celeste Benson has the unique privilege of being born and raised on the Fellowship Deaconry. Her parents met at camp while they were both working on staff. After their summer working at DCS, her mom worked in various roles on the property and her dad worked in the kitchen as the chef. Once they were married, they settled down on the Deaconry to raise the family. Celeste is the fourth of five children, but the only one who took on a full-time role at DCS. She went from camper, to CIT (Counselor-In-Training), to counselor, to manager, to registrar, and now the assistant director. She loves camp and is grateful not just for the opportunity to work here full-time, but to call this place her home.
