Positions at Camp
Division Leaders
Division Leaders act as a liaison between the Directors and the group or division for which they are responsible. Division Leaders are direct supervisors of the campers and counselors in their groups and assist the Directors with all activities, group issues and staff performance. The Division Leaders are fully involved in all aspects of their campers’ day, including meal supervision, group management and scheduling. They meet with the Directors before each day begins to exchange information as to the events of that particular day and maintain an open line of communication with their counselors, campers, directors and parents.
Group Leaders
Group Leaders head up our Stepping Stones and first grade groups. Their job entails all of the responsibilities of a Group Counselor as well as directing the group counselors that work with them. Group Leaders must be at least 21 years of age.
Group Counselors
Each group of campers is led by 2-3 Group Counselors who fill the role as parent, coach, older sibling and teacher.
