Program Director Jon Collazo
How did you get involved with Camp One Step?
I first heard about Camp One Step from Erin H. (Program Director for Utah Ski) who raved about how amazing COS is and told me I had to see it for myself. So I volunteered for Utah Ski in 2020 and was immediately blown away by the Campers & Volunteers and from then on was hooked on the COS Community.
How long have you been involved with our organization?
I have been part of the Camp One Step organization since 2020 when I was a volunteer for the Utah Ski Camp in Park City, UT.
What volunteer roles have you held (includes volunteering for a Camp One Step event or TOS)?
Volunteer Counselor for Utah Ski, Summer Camp Virtual & Winter Camp Virtual and now Program Director for Utah Ski!
What keeps you coming back to Camp One Step?
The Camp One Step community is one of a kind. From the positive energy to the constant smiles, it’s hard not to keep coming back.
What do you love the most about the program you lead?
I am an adventure fanatic and love camping, hiking, really anything outdoors and being able to bring that sense of adventure to the campers for a week is something that I’m very excited about.
What are some words of wisdom or advice that you would give campers?
#1 HAVE FUN!
Camp is a place where you can feel comfortable trying new things. It opens the door for a lot of opportunity to make new friends, experience new adventures, and make memories that last a lifetime.

#1 HAVE FUN!
There are no words for how amazing the campers are and they truly make our jobs as volunteers easy. Create a connection with the campers and the rest will take care of itself. If you have hesitations about applying… don’t hesitate, apply! You’ll thank me later. ;)
