Barbara has been a part of Tall Pines since its inception in 1996. She was originally hired as part of the seasonal summer staff. After five years of only working during the summer, she joined Tall Pines full-time. In her role as the Assistant Director, Barbara is in charge of hiring the staff and creating the eagerly anticipated, annual Yearbook. In the summer months, she supervises all the campers and staff in Middle Camp Boys. She’s also in charge of working with over 100 clients for school and corporate picnics.

Barbara grew up in Broomall, PA, and graduated from Rider University with a degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. After moving to Cherry Hill with her husband and two children, she began teaching preschool at M’kor Shalom Synagogue in Cherry Hill. She taught there for ten years before joining the Tall Pines staff full-time. Barbara’s children were part of the first class of campers that attended Tall Pines. Now that they are grown, she enjoys watching her grandchildren experience camp.
