Counselor PositionsCounselors:

The majority of our staff are counselors (Cabin Leaders). Counselors live in a cabin group, teach activities in a department, and help lead camp-wide programs. Counselors serve in “loco parentis” (in place of parents) while at camp. In cabins, this means you make sure your campers take showers, brush their teeth, keep their belongings together, clean up after themselves, and get along with cabin mates. During activities, this means you teach them new skills, help them improve current skills, teach them to be good team players, and ensure that they stay safe. You must make sure your campers are eating enough food, drinking enough water, and getting enough sleep to stay healthy at camp. Counselors are hired for their experience, enjoyment of, and teaching abilities in one of the following areas:

Aquatics:

Swim lessons, water polo, water aerobics, water games, and more. All aquatics staff must be certified lifeguards and are responsible for overseeing all aquatics programs and activities at the camp’s pool and lake.

Creative Arts:

Arts and crafts, photography, nature art, stage makeup, clay work, sketching, and painting.

Performing Arts:

Guitar lessons, movie making, dance, drama, improv, Dungeons & Dragons, and singing and vocals.

Equestrian:

English riding lessons, trail rides, horse care, and stable upkeep.

Outdoors:

Mountain biking, high ropes challenge courses, outdoor living skills, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, rock climbing, caving, tubing, archery, and more.

Natural World:

Horizons farm, garden, and nature exploration.

Sports:

Basketball, volleyball, soccer, pickleball, tennis, team sports, ultimate frisbee, yoga, and more.

Counselors should have experience or a desire to work with children and show expertise in the specific activities that we offer. Training is provided. Many of our counselors return to camp year after year.


Certifications:

Certifications are required for certain positions and must be current and obtained through a reputable, nationally recognized provider.

Aquatics Staff: Lifeguard (including First Aid and CPR) certification preferred prior to the start of camp. Water Safety Instructor (WSI) certification is preferred.
