Gifts for camp counselors

My son went to town camp for 3 hours a day and the last day is approaching. I will say I was not happy at all with the counselors, I posted in the past about it, but to sum it up they were very unfriendly and barely lifted their head when the kids came in. I don't even know one of their names.

So my question is, what is appropriate to give them.

Thanks!

If you were that unhappy, then nothing.

Nothing if they were crummy!
My son went to the town camp and his were great! I usually give them each $10 to blockbuster or starbucks (he has 2 counselors)

If they were bad then nothing.

I was thinking about giving the teachers a bottle of wine each, and the young counselor a GC for $25.

If they were bad, nothing. In all the years my kids have gone to camp, I have only once "stiffed" a counselor.

Last year one of my older duaghter's counselors was terrible, so I tipped the other counselor (who picked up all the slack) and the CIT but didn't tip the lousy counselor. I think its the strongest message you can send to both the counselor and the camp.
