  • Assist with training and any logistical needs prior to camp starting.
  • Assist with packing in at the end of the summer including end-of-the-season gear sales.
  • Fill in as a substitute instructor when called upon.

Job Requirements

  • Must be at least 21 years of age at the start of training.
  • Current driver’s license with clean driving record.
  • By the start of training, must have at minimum CPR and Basic First Aid certifications.
  • Comfortable with and/or willingness to learn Gmail, Google Docs, and spreadsheets.
  • Ability to spend 3-5 hours per day moving, lifting, walking, squatting. Ability to spend 2-4 hours per day sitting and driving.
  • Readiness to work in a variety of environmental conditions, including high heat, rain, and cold or windy conditions.
  • Ability to lift up to 50 pounds.
  • Experience in the camping or adventure sports industry preferred, but not required.

Work Schedule

  • Full time hourly work between 7:30am – 4:30pm daily, one hour lunch
  • Full time schedule will generally be Mondays – Fridays, with occasional weekend work, especially at the beginning and end of the season.
  • This is a seasonal position. Position begins at the end of May and runs through early – mid August (location depending).
