Yes, all of our staff live at the camp during the summer. Staff have the weekends off from Friday around 7pm until Sunday at 4pm.

Although we try to be flexible we cannot grant more than a day or so off during the summer. There may be some more flexibility if you have to miss some time at the beginning or end of the summer.

All summer positions, unless otherwise noted on the staff application are 10 weeks long and in 2019 will start on June 17th with two weeks of staff training and end on August 24th. This will overlap with highschool exams. See the next question.

This happens every year and we have created a good system so that you can write your exams and attend as much of staff training as possible. We work with the schools to often write exams early, write exams at the camp, and sometimes you will need time off from camp to write your exams. Please don’t let this discourage you from applying.

All positions are paid. Please email Adrian to get a range that your salary might be.

It can’t hurt but it is not required.

No, because we have so many excellent applicants every year no one is guaranteed a position. Please take your application and interview seriously.

Yes, for insurance and liability reasons we require references to be done every year.

Yes you can but it is discouraged. We much prefer an in-person interview but we also know that sometimes it can be impossible if you live really far away. After you submit your application you will be asked to sign up for an interview. During that process you will be able to request an over the phone interview.

The Sr. Healthcare Coordinator (Nurse) must be completing his/her third year of school or greater. There is some flexibility on the qualifications for the Jr. Healthcare coordinator.

Lifeguards are required to have their NLS.
