What the job entails: A fantastic summer
spent with peer counselors influencing the lives of children from all over the
United States between the ages of 7–15. Through imagination-driven games such
as treasure hunts, water balloon wars, and blobbing to adventure challenges like
the high ropes course, rockclimbing, and funyak river trips we shape, challenge,
and teach our kids about teamwork, positive attitudes, and friendships rooted in
respect. |
We're flexible! With over 90% of our summer staff
being college kids we are able to work around schedules such as May term and
other summer conflicts. Also, even though our eight summer sessions run from
June 4th – August 9th , counselors are able to work less than five
sessions giving you weeks off to enjoy some free time. We also have several
optional terms to work such as a Foster Teen Camp in June, activity days, and
much more. The opportunities are endless and as flexible as you would like.
Do I need prior training? If hired, Camp Winnamocka
will train you in all the necessary certifications to perform a job as a
Winnamocka camp counselor... American Red Cross Lifeguarding, First Aid, CPR,
and ropes course facilitator and instructor certifications just to name a few.
If you already have some or all of these under your belt you've got a head
start. If not, we will provide you with all the skills during our
training weeks to make you a great counselor as well as give you wonderful
resumé builders for the future. |

It will be the most magical summer... this is not just
any job! The experience of working at camp will be so rewarding - rewarding in
lifelong friendships for you and rewarding in the fact that you will have the
chance to influence, enhance, and work with the most important people... our
children. To do all this and have fun is an experience in itself. |
If you know of anyone that would have the personality, character, energy and
attitude that would benefit our children please pass this information along!

The Director Gang
