Work for Camp

Build memories and your resume this summer!

Camp is more than a job—it's an opportunity to make your summer meaningful. You have the power to change a girl’s life while having fun at camp yourself. Days are spent discovering the outdoors, STEAM education, our inner artists, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. Share your talents with us to help build girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place!

Why work for camp

Leadership toggle arrow

You will likely be supervising between 7–15 others, engaging in decision-making, behavior management, and living ethics—all necessary leadership skills for today.

Diverse & Global Experience toggle arrow

It is not uncommon for campers and staff to be from a variety of places and cultural perspectives from around the US and world.

Networking toggle arrow

With other staff and connections to camp alumni can provide a link to possible internships or future job opportunities in a variety of careers.

Training Certifications toggle arrow

You get to keep any additional training you may acquire (like CPR, first aid, and activity specialist certifications) that may enhance your work elsewhere during the off-season.

Room & Board toggle arrow

Will be provided if working at a resident camp; housing, meals, laundry, utilities, and other living expenses are covered, which means extra money in your pocket at the end of the season.

Professional Development toggle arrow

Communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity are developed and practiced at camp; they are skills and traits that can draw employers’ attention to your resume. Ongoing professional development sets you up to learn about your job while building a strong team with the people you will be working with all throughout the summer.

Letters of Recommendation toggle arrow

Camp directors/leaders write great letters of recommendation because they take the time to get to know you as an individual and see you in action daily.

Paycheck toggle arrow

You will get paid an hourly above minimum wage with add-ons for experience, certifications, leadership roles, extra duties, etc. Plus, spending the summer at camp is a great way to save your summer earnings.
