Dear Referral,
We appreciate you taking the time to fill out the reference form found below. It will be helpful in considering this applicant for employment. Your personal comments and honesty are very important. Please be specific. Any information given will not be shared with the applicant.
Being a staff member at Oakcrest carries with it a great deal of pressure, responsibility, and dedication. The employees are required to work long hours, get along with other staff members, and be willing to set aside their own wants and needs for the needs of the young women who attend camp. They will work for a difficult and tedious 10 weeks. Please consider this as you write your recommendation.
Please note that references may not be completed by relatives, roommates or boyfriends. Copying the completed reference to the applicant will disqualify her from consideration. They are not to be aware of the contents of your submission.
Sincerely, Oakcrest Camp Women's Committee
