Britton and Drew Bitterman have dedicated their careers to the power of the sleepaway camp experience, helping campers and staff grow, thrive, and build lifelong memories. Above all, they are deeply committed to protecting the positive values, traditions, and tight-knit community that make Bryn Mawr so special.

Drew grew up spending 13 summers at Camp Watitoh in the Berkshires. After graduating from Muhlenberg College with a degree in Business, he worked for an event marketing company before realizing that nothing beats the magic of summer camp. He followed his true passion into full-time camping in 2001 and hasn’t looked back since.

Britton’s story follows a similar path—starting as a camper right here at Bryn Mawr! She spent 11 summers as a camper, counselor, and Division Head across the camp world. After earning her History degree and teaching certification at Duke University, she spent five years teaching elementary school near Washington, D.C., while earning a Master’s Degree in Educational Administration from The George Washington University. With her background in child development and school leadership, Britton jumped at the chance to pursue her ultimate dream of becoming a camp director, entering full-time camping in 2005.

For 13 years (2014–2026), Britton and Drew poured their hearts into being the Camp Directors of Camp Watitoh in Becket, MA. Bringing Drew’s childhood camp full circle, they spent over a decade fostering a close-knit tradition, guiding staff, and building a vibrant community where campers felt right at home.

On any given day at camp, you’ll catch Drew and Britton leading the charge in full costume for theme days (and sometimes just because!). Their favorite parts of the day are tucking campers in, saying goodnight, and sharing campfire bedtime stories.

Both Britton and Drew are deeply involved with the American Camp Association (ACA). Drew serves as an ACA Standards Visitor and has chaired both the Tri-State Camp Conference and the Joe Kruger Youth Development Conference. Britton has served on the board and as a director liaison for Emerging Professionals in Camping (EPIC), and also served as a Kruger Youth Development Conference Chair.

During the school year, Britton and Drew live in Maplewood, NJ, with their two camper kids, Shane and Helen, and their mini goldendoodle, Becket.
