Camp Fellowship Program

The Camp Fellowship Program is a leadership and career development program centered around independent employment at summer camp. Each aspect of the program focuses on equipping the participants with critical thinking, problem-solving, interpersonal, and leadership skills that are highly coveted and transferrable to other educational and professional settings. The program prepares the participants for the responsibilities of working at a summer camp, and also provides mentorship opportunities that foster meaningful relationships with the younger participants of our Campership and Compass Programs.

 

Why is this Program Right for Me?

You are at a point in your life where it is increasingly important to make the right decisions for your future. You want a fun, rewarding summer job but need something that will look great on a resume and help you gain valuable career skills and experience. This program has it!

Working at summer camp is a REAL job that can be both fulfilling and looks good on your resume because it is rich in growth opportunities including:

  • Interpersonal and Leadership Development
  • Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving
  • Collaborative Skills
  • Creativity
  • Networking Opportunities
  • Diverse and Global Experience
  • College Credit or Internship
  • Training and Certifications
  • Professional Development
  • Letters of Recommendation

A Paid Fellowship

The Camp Fellowship Program includes a stipend that reflects the additional responsibilities required both before and during your employment at summer camp. When added to the compensation you receive from camp, this stipend removes the financial barriers that may exist when considering a position working at summer camp by providing combined earnings that are competitive with other opportunities that may lack the satisfaction and career development that you are looking for at this time of your life.
