Extra-curricular activities such as the Venturing crew,where He learned High level outdoor skills and leadership in a co-ed environment.
Returning to Camp Alexander as Staff in training for 2 years..etc and so forth.Professional, but conversational. Include a "Bibliography' or time-line either pre-paragraph or post. Showing the dates/places. This shows that You have the ability to place information in a timely/professional manner,and understand the needs/desires of those who are staffing positions later on. They will remember "This guy was a aquatics director as well as staff member..He knows this stuff' having had it drilled into their head TWICE! Yep,TWICE.Once by timeline,furthered by explanation.
