Program Internship - Ages 17 Only

With only two available spots each session, this new and limited program internship is meant to build life skills, with increasing camp support responsibilities. Program Interns will shadow instructors, be part of the planning and implementing camp activities and logistics, guide campers in personal growth and outdoor skills, and will bunk in the counselor room in the log-style dormitories as an added perk. Registrants should demonstrate a passion for camp and initiative and independence to undertake a larger role. This internship is a strong building block for your college application and resume.
