Summer Camp Creative Programming

Description:

Camp is calling. This isn't just a summer job, it's a mission.

Spend your summer building the moments campers talk about all year. As a Creative Programming Associate, you'll plan and run all-camp games, sign-up activities, and High School Week programming, turning a schedule into something campers actually get excited about.

If you're looking for something that actually matters, not just a paycheck, this is it.

Plan, set up, facilitate, and tear down all-camp games and sign-up activities

Assist in coordinating and supervising staff training and maintenance of activity areas

Coordinate with Village Leaders on use of activity areas

Flex into other roles and temporary assignments as needed, including Cabin Leader

Leadership and logistics experience that stands out on a resume

A summer that impacts lives, including your own

Important Role Details

Why This Role Matters

You'll spend the summer running events in front of hundreds of people, and you'll find out fast what works and what doesn't. That's project management, public speaking, and creative problem solving all at once, and it's rare to get that much practice in one season. You'll also be the reason a camper's best memory of the summer is a game you invented on a Tuesday. That's a summer worth having.

Additional Requirements

Must be 18 years of age or older

Employment is contingent on background and reference checks
