Group leaders act as a liaison between the head counselors and the group or division for which they are responsible. Group leaders are direct supervisors of the campers and counselors in their group and assist the head counselors with all activities, bunk issues and staff performance. The group leaders are fully involved in all aspects of their campers’ day, including meal supervision, bunk management and scheduling. They meet with the head counselors before each day begins to exchange information as to the events of that particular day and maintain an open line of communication with their counselors and campers. Since group leaders live in the bunk with campers, they are perfect for personal communication situations that arise. They help set the positive overall tone which incorporates our mission of teaching children the skills of making and keeping friends while building self-esteem and self-confidence.

In each bunk there are 1 or 2 General Counselors and 1 or 2 Specialty Counselors. The General Counselors spend the day working with their campers and participating in the activities with them. In order to be a GC you must have the following qualities: patience, compassion, fairness, great listening skills and the ability to relate to kids. We look for applicants who have some experience working with kids.

You live in a bunk with campers, have bunk responsibilities and serve as a role model for the campers. However, once the daily activities start you report to your specialty area for the six activity periods. The head specialist will provide guidance and training to ensure each specialist performs to the best of his/her ability. Applicants must demonstrate a strong aptitude in their specialty area and must have experience teaching/coaching children.

• Swimming - WSI's & Lifeguards
• Boating - Canoeing, Sailing, Windsurfing & Kayaking
• Waterskiing

You will lead, teach, supervise and ensure the overall safety of the specialty area. Applicants must demonstrate significant experience teaching/coaching in the specialty area, as well as the ability to train and supervise a group of assistants. We require our Directors to be able to work autonomously, developing their own program within our camps' philosophy. Although you may not live in a bunk, we follow a team approach and all work together to ensure the highest quality program and camp experience.
