Job Description

We operate two beautiful camp properties, Camp Evelyn in Plymouth, Wisconsin, and Camp Manitou in Shoto, Wisconsin. Camp Evelyn has over 240 acres of forest with access to Crystal Lake and the Mullet River. Camp Manitou has over 140 acres of forest with access to the West Twin River and our own beautiful Serenity Lake. Each summer over 1,000 girls, ranging in age from 6 to 17 years old, attend camp. Girls have the option of staying just for the day or overnight. The camping season starts in June and goes through the end of August.

We are looking for qualified staff who are excited about helping girls grow strong and are committed to their jobs. Students in all fields will benefit by working with children in an informal setting. Applicants should realize that the job of a camp staff is challenging, demanding and requires a great deal of patience and understanding. We invest in our staff by providing the highest quality training so they are equipped to face opportunities and challenges with newly gained skills. Thank you for your interest in working at camp!

Overview of position:

Coordinate, plan, teach and implement creative, enjoyable and challenging camp activities for campers. Counselors are the primary caregiver for each camper. You will be responsible for a group of 15-30 girls on a daily basis ensuring their safety and health and managing their behavior.

Along with job-specific requirements, all staff are expected to:

  • Act as an appropriate role model for the girls and fellow staff members through actions, appearance, language and professional work habits
