About KLF Camp Staffing
A short story of how KLF Camp Staffing was founded
Ken L. Freedman (KLF) began his camp journey in the early 1970s as a general counselor at KenMont Camp.
KLF Camp Staffing was founded in 2015 by Ken L. Freedman, a passionate summer camp lifer who currently serves as the Food Service Director at Camp Equinunk and Blue Ridge in Pennsylvania.
Ken got his start in camping in 1971 (see above: second from the right) as a general counselor at KenMont Kenwood Camp in Connecticut. Since then, he's held different positions at a few different camps, including Assistant Director and Food Service Director, a position he's held since 2010
He founded KLF Camp Staffing to fill a glaring need in camp recruiting: finding talented and reliable chefs. As someone who interviews chefs himself, he understood the challenge camps were facing. In 2023, he expanded his services to include nurses, an equally hard-to-fill summer position.
Since 2015, KLF Camp Staffing has placed more than 150 chefs at summer camps across the country.
