Can't decide between camp and an internship?
Read an article published in USA TODAY - Skip the Internship, go to Camp. Weighing up the benefits of working as a camp counselor VS getting an internship. "The value of working at a summer camp is your ability to be successful and out shine those around you once you have that job." How will you spend your summer?
Counselors at our camps have a dual role. You live in a cabin with a group of campers and two to three other counselors with whom you share cabin responsibilities and you instruct an activity during the day. If you are interested in applying for a counselor position, below are the possible activities you may apply to instruct:
