Camp Chewonki is one of Maine’s most prestigious nature-based overnight camp and expedition-based youth leadership program children based on a 400-acre peninsula in mid-coast Maine. Since 1915, Chewonki has been changing the lives of children and staff- including yours! Overnight campers are aged 8-14 and spend 10 days or 3 weeks at camp. The overnight camp program focuses on building cabin community, building social emotional skills and knowledge in a core curriculum (including natural history, farm & food systems, watercraft, the arts, and more!) and learning about backcountry travel on multi-day remote cabin trips.
Logistics Assistants are seasonal positions available during Chewonki’s summer season. Logistics Assistants (LA) work as members of a team to support participants and staff in Chewonki’s summer programs. LAs work with staff and participants through the preparation of food and equipment, transportation to and from the field, facilitating resupplies, and post-trip cleanup. LAs may also be assigned to other tasks as needed to support all of Chewonki’s summer programs.
Responsibilities are always varied and at times unpredictable for the LAs. A day at work can consist of anything from driving a trip of participants into the North Maine Woods to repairing broken tents and canoes, in addition to working alongside other staff and participants as they learn how to prepare for and wrap up from a trip.
