Work at Camp.
Girl Scouts are forces of nature. You're a force of nature, too, and we need you.
Working at camp is a life-changing experience. Camp staff are role models, self-confidence boosters, unconditional friends, caregivers, and cheerleaders. In our campers' eyes, you are real-life superheroes who love to play as much as they do.
Working at camp is a game-changer. What does camp give you?
A job at camp can prepare you for your first year of college, managing your finances, living with roommates, handling emergencies, working effectively with others, learning how to care for others, and supervising staff. You can apply the skills you learn over the summer to any profession.
Working at Girl Scout camp will give you incredible friendships that you'll have for the rest of your life—real friends who will have your back and celebrate your successes.
You don't have to have all the skills now. We will prepare you for your summer at camp.
First-time staff will need to participate in training specific to their position. Our staff training starts in the last week of May or early June. Staff will need to attend these to be prepared for their position.
