Job Overview

We operate two beautiful camp properties, Camp Evelyn in Plymouth, Wisconsin, and Camp Manitou in Shoto, Wisconsin. Camp Evelyn has over 240 acres of forest with access to Crystal Lake and the Mullet River. Camp Manitou has over 140 acres of forest with access to the West Twin River and our own beautiful Serenity Lake. Each summer over 1,000 girls, ranging in age from 6 to 17 years old, attend camp. Girls have the option of staying just for the day or overnight. The camping season starts in June and goes through the end of August.

We are looking for qualified staff who are excited about helping girls grow strong and are committed to their jobs. Students in all fields will benefit by working with children in an informal setting. Applicants should realize that the job of a camp staff is challenging, demanding and requires a great deal of patience and understanding. We invest in our staff by providing the highest quality training so they are equipped to face opportunities and challenges with newly gained skills. Thank you for your interest in working at camp!

Overview of position:

Coordinate, plan, teach and implement creative, enjoyable and challenging camp activities for campers. Counselors are the primary caregiver for each camper. You will be responsible for a group of 15-30 girls on a daily basis ensuring their safety and health and managing their behavior.

Along with job-specific requirements, all staff are expected to:

  • Be able to adapt to a flexible 24-hour schedule
  • Be a team player—camp cannot function unless everyone is working together
  • Have a willingness to create a positive community with fellow staff members and campers
  • Have experience working with kids and/or skills related to the specific position
  • Have the willingness, enthusiasm, and ability to participate fully in the camp experience
  • Enjoy living and working in the outdoors
  • Create a safe, supportive, and positive environment for all girls. The focus at camp is the girls—we need to make sure we focus on their needs and provide support, guidance, encouragement, and patience at all times
  • Act as an appropriate role model for the girls and fellow staff members through actions, appearance, language and professional work habits
  • Realize respecting everyone is important—this includes yourself, campers, staff members, visitors, and the environment
  • Abide by camp policies, procedures, and guidelines
