[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a camp counselor two summers in a row at the JCC, and tipping was DEFINITELY customary there. I worked with this hilarious elderly lady who had the energy of a 5 yr old. She would run around the halls, asking what everyone got at the end of the summer, comparing "notes." It was fun, and I certainly appreciated the money. FYI, anyone who says giving cash is "crass" has not known what it is like to be in need of money. Everyone appreciates the gesture, even if not everyone NEEDS the money.[/quote] I think it's crass and inappropriate and I have been in desperate need of money before. One summer I ate pasta with lemon salt for every meal because that's all I could afford. And tipping camp counselors is inappropriate. My DD is drawing pictures for hers, which I think is sweet. I've also been a teacher and can tell you I was more touched by personal notes and comments from the parents than by gift certificates. [/quote]
