What is camp
You’ll meet people from all over the world and make friends for life. It is one of the hardest yet most rewarding jobs you will ever have.
It’s your job to teach campers your skills and talents and most importantly your culture and way of life.
SO, WHAT EXACTLY IS CAMP?

“Camp changed my life. My 4 summers spent in Wisconsin made me into the person I am today.”
REAL STORIES
Camp changes lives
“The experience I was able to gain at summer camp went well beyond what I could possibly imagine back home in the UK. It was beneficial to my skill set but also an incredible cultural journey too.”
“Camp is the most fun you will ever have!”
“Camp completely changed the direction of my life. I caught the travel bug, quit my job, changed careers and now I spend my weeks flying at 35,000ft around the world.”
YOUR DAY TO DAY AT CAMP
What will you actually do?
Your role is to be a mentor, role model and instructor to your campers. You are there to ensure they have the summer of a lifetime, as they grow and develop as individuals.
You will take part in their day to day activities, which means you will be up at the crack of dawn to get them ready for a fun filled day of activities.
Ensuring everyone is ready, showered and at breakfast! You will then either lead specific activities, or stay with your cabin to complete the day’s activities.
WHAT ELSE CAN YOU EXPECT?
