Summer Camp COUNSELOR (Lead and Assistant)
Make a difference to elementary aged Girls!
Update: We have one assistant counselor position available for Session 3, July 26 - August 13.
Job Description:
Looking for experienced camp counselors to lead our summer pods of 15 kids, with the help of a high school assistant. This is a great job for camp counselors, teachers, enrichment teachers, and college students looking for summer jobs. Ideal for someone with a school year job or university studies.
Do you love working with kids? Do you love to teach or tutor science, math, or engineering? Do you enjoy hiking outside, and being creative with outdoor craft projects? We are looking for energetic staff for our summer camp, which will be outdoors this summer. Curriculum involves nature appreciation and one hands-on projects per day, tailored to the way that girls learn. We believe that mistakes are good because they grow your brain, and we encourage girls to figure out the process for themselves, with us supporting them along the way, without taking over their projects. We are not a cookie-cutter program.
