When people think of working at a camp, usually they think about the counselors, who work directly with the kids every day. There is a lot that goes into running a camp and to have a successful summer we need to hire great people to work in our kitchen, on our maintenance staff, and in other areas as well. If working at a camp sounds like fun, this may be the right job for you. While you will not be working directly with campers, everyone we hire needs to be willing to live in a communal environment, want to work as part of a team and also display behavior that is appropriate for a child centered environment. Here are some of the positions we offer:

– Kitchen Staff: Our kitchen staff is responsible for making three meals a day for approximately 250 individuals. We are looking for a wide variety of people to work in our kitchen. This includes experienced cooks, assistant cooks, and other kitchen helpers. The different positions require varying levels of experience but most importantly we are looking for people who are hard workers and are able to work well with others, in this team environment.

– Maintenance: Our maintenance staff is responsible for the general upkeep of camp. This position is a mix of light construction work as well as general clean-up. On a typical day you will help clean our wash-houses, make sure that garbage cans around camp are emptied, perform basic landscape work and also help fix things that are in need of repair. This is a great opportunity if you’re looking for a “typical summer job” in a great, outdoor environment. Read the Maintenance Staff job description for more information.
