Molly Britz
May 1, 2016Molly Britz is a born and raised southern girl that was transplanted north at the age of thirteen, spending all of her childhood years in a then small town of Tega Cay, South Carolina, and her middle and high school years in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Molly’s parents shared a love for backpacking, biking, and all things outside and passed that appreciation down to her and her brother. Molly lost her dad to cancer when she was five years old, but that didn’t stop her mom from continuing to share her dad’s love of the outdoors with her.
Molly attended North Central Michigan College in Petoskey and eventually transferred to the Outdoor Recreation Leadership and Management Program at Northern Michigan University. During her time at NMU, Molly served as the president of Organization for Outdoor Recreation Professionals, organizing and leading a variety of events for the outdoor recreation community on and off campus. Molly relocated to Boyne Falls, Michigan to complete an internship with a summer camp before graduating in August of 2015.
Molly has worked with children for as long as she can remember, from daycare centers to summer camps and babysitting. She’s an active volunteer in her community but her proudest volunteer experience has been participating in Relay for Life events from the age of six. At a young age Molly knew she wanted to do two things in her life: work outside and play with kids. From that, Molly developed a dream of opening and running her own summer camp for children who have lost a loved one. Molly attended a small grief camp after her dad passed away; she always felt the camp was too short and out of that frustration, the idea to create a week long program was born.
After fulfilling her internship and receiving her diploma Molly was at a loss. Missing Marquette and the friends and family she created there, she wasn’t sure where she wanted to go or where to start. It was then she remembered being offered a job as a full time Nanny by her friends and fellow 40 Below members Candice and Jeff Larson. Molly took the job and made the move back to Marquette that September. Since returning to the U.P., Molly has enjoyed taking care of the Larson girls, and with the help of Accelerate UP, Molly has now been able to put her dreams in to motion and will be running the fist week ever of Camp Peter Charles this summer. Molly is excited to see where this venture takes her in life.
Outside of Camp Peter Charles, Molly enjoys skiing, snowboarding, ice skating, hiking, backpacking, camping, and baking in the kitchen. She has always managed to find a way to incorporate her interests into her work life. Whether it be becoming certified as a cake decorator and running her own bake shop out of her house through high school to pay for gas money, teaching skiing and snowboarding in the winter to children, or working at summer camps playing outside, Molly continues to find ways to turn her play into work and her work into play.
