Brungo, Samuel (Echo)

Growing up a camper, all I ever wanted to be was a summer camp counselor. As I got older, I realized all I really ever wanted was to be outdoors and together with good people. That’s Shaver’s Creek.

Years at Shaver’s Creek: 2014–2019

Positions Held: Leader in Training, Summer Camp, Volunteer

Current Company/Organization: Centre Volunteers in Medicine, Student

I started at Shaver’s Creek as a Wee Wanderer, continued until I was a Leader in Training (LIT), and spent some time as a lifeguard once I aged out. It was an incredible experience, and an unbelievable way for kids to spend their summers.

I graduated from Penn State in 2022 before moving to Texas to work as a Team Photographer for the Dallas Wings WNBA team. After two years down there, I moved home and am back in school pursuing a career in dentistry. I work at Centre Volunteers in Medicine and our family practice as I prepare for dental school.
