Applications will open in January 2025!
We offer a challenging and rewarding summer experience in an active environment, a chance to experience personal growth, and a great opportunity to help our campers learn about themselves and their peers.
Our requirements for new camp staff are as follows:
- Must be at least 18 years of age (95% of our staff are University age students or older).
- Must be a full or part-time student at a recognized institution of post-secondary education.
- Proven experience in leadership of children and youth, preferably in a camp setting.
- Significant experience in at least three of our activity areas
- Current Standard First Aid/CPR certifications. NLS or Bronze Cross awards are an asset.
Most importantly, we are committed to hiring individuals who consider their position at camp to be more than a job. Camp life requires staff to give much of themselves throughout the summer, to accept responsibility for the trust that parents place in us, and to be involved with all aspects of their campers' day.
Applications are now open, and we will be completing most of our hiring in February/March 2025.
