Why camp?
There are countless reasons why camp is an experience like no other. From personal growth to making lifelong friends, discover the key reasons why spending time at camp is one of the most rewarding adventures you'll ever have.
Leadership
You lead a group of campers every day. You supervise others. You gain leaderships skills while directing your group on a trip out of camp. Yep, you've got leadership skills!
Creativity
Every day, you adapt to new situations and new challenges, and being flexible is key! Changes are common, and being able to creatively change and adapt effectively is part of any camp job.
Organization
You organize an evening activity, you organize games for an evening, you organize a camper's birthday party. That's organization!
Communication
You talk with your campers, you collaborate with your co-workers, you teach your classes, you supervise others. Whatever job you have at camp, you use communication skills!
Teamwork
Collaboration is part of every day you work at camp. You are always with others, working together toward a common goal, getting the job done!
Critical Thinking
Whether it's problem solving rainy day alternatives during your class, being part of the logistics of an all camp trip or organizing an outdoor banquet for 200 people, you'll learn problem solving skills that will last a lifetime.
Got what it takes?

- Embrace differences, maintain resilience and adaptability, enjoy flexible and constantly changing work.
- Exhibit values of fairness, tolerance, compassion, and patience.
- Are willing to minimize the use of technology for the duration of the camp session. (We promise it will be worthwhile!)
- Have a good sense of humor, playfulness, enjoyment of "the random", and willingness to be fun and responsible at the same time.
What Do I Get?
Apart from memories to last a lifetime, our salaries are very competitive with industry standards, with new camp counselors starting in the range of $2800-$3100 depending on experience and certifications.
On-site housing is provided on-site for all staff, as are all meals, laundry services, and internet access.
Internships for college credit may be available.
Mandatory paid, staff training is 10 days in June. Staff are also provided a staff training handbook prior to their arrival date.
What Qualifications do I need?

They should also be available full time to live at camp from approximately mid June to mid August, with the exception of support or healthcare staff.
We do require previous references and/or prior work experience and be willing to learn leadership and other new skills.
Since working with youth, complete background and reference checks are a part of the process.
