As an Outdoor Education Instructor, you’ll be a dynamic part of the YMCA team, supporting youth and families through outdoor education and guest experiences. This role is perfect for someone who thrives on variety—one day you might lead a science activity in our outdoor classroom and later helping guests enjoy a retreat at Camp Carter.

You’ll make a lasting impact by fostering learning, adventure, and community connection across multiple programs—all while working in a mission-driven organization that values youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.

What You’ll Do
  • Engage and Inspire Youth: Create safe, positive, and fun environments for children in after-school programs.
  • Lead Activities: Facilitate recreation, enrichment, and team-building activities—indoors and outdoors.
  • Teach and Explore: Deliver hands-on lessons in environmental science, outdoor living skills, and nature appreciation (training provided).
  • Support Guest Experiences: Help set up events, assist with hospitality needs, and ensure groups have a welcoming, memorable stay at Camp Carter.
  • Ensure Safety and Quality: Follow YMCA policies, maintain visual/auditory awareness of participants, and uphold high standards of care and customer service.
  • Collaborate and Adapt: Work with a supportive team to meet program needs across different settings and schedules.
Schedule
  • Mid-Day (Mon-Fri, ~10 AM - 2 PM) for field trips at YMCA Camp Carter.
    • Additional hours for outdoor education classes, retreats, and guest services—weekday, evening, and occasional weekend shifts.
      Flexibility is key; schedules vary by season and program demand.
Qualifications
  • Age: 18+
  • Education: High School Diploma/GED or higher
  • Training: Complete YMCA and state-required trainings (First Aid, CPR, Child Abuse Prevention) within 30 days; additional certifications provided.
  • Skills: Strong communication, leadership, and customer service; ability to manage groups and adapt to changing needs.
  • Physical: Able to lift up to 40 lbs., hike, and work outdoors in varying weather conditions.
  • Experience: Previous work in childcare, education, outdoor programs, or hospitality is helpful—but not required. We provide training!
Benefits
  • Free YMCA membership
  • Discounts on programs and childcare
  • Professional development and certifications
  • Work in a truly tight knit team that supports each other
  • Experience a variety of opportunities in the field of youth development
Pay

$10–$13.26/hour, based on experience
