Summer Staff Members

Chase Patterson

CounselorReturners

This will be Chase's 2nd summer at Ridgecrest. Last year he served as a Rattlesnake counselor and he is excited to be back as a counselor again this summer!

If you could be an expert in any field, what would it be?

I’d love to be in expert in mountain time so I can explain how it works to the kids better

If you could bring 3 items on a deserted island, what would they be?

A bible, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, and a camera to film cool rocks falling down hills into water

What is your favorite form of potato?

Gotta go with mashed on this one. Mashed potatoes are really hard to mess up and the topping options easily beat out any other potato cuisines.

What are you most excited for this summer?

I’d say I’m most excited to get to meet new kids and see some of my previous campers too. I’m also hyped to meet the new guys on staff and create some great lifelong friendships with them.

What is your prayer for the summer?

I just want to pray that God keeps producing the amazing miracles he has in kids and staffers lives at Camp Ridgecrest. I pray that He will equip me with the words and strength I need to show kids what being a God fearing man looks like, while being able to have a ton of fun too. I want to pray for all the other staffers as well that the Lord will give them the guidance they need to show kids who He is and give them the strength to be able to show up all summer long.
