• The selection of counselors depends on many factors, including: experience at this camp or other camps; certifications actively held in various activities like archery, ropes course, canoeing, lifeguard, kayaking, or sailing; special interests like arts & crafts, carpentry, culinary, plumbing, music, etc. and the number of campers attending.
• Submit three letters of recommendation (upload in your application as .doc, .docx, or .pdf)
• A background check will be completed on you as part of the application process.
• Every counselor must submit a copy of his/her physical exam (the exam must have been completed within the last three years) using the special state required physical exam form in the application packet. No other form can be accepted.
