Lifeguards; high adventure teams including: belay, zipline, challenge course, canoeing, and archery; nurse, cook, and youth developers are but a few of the skilled persons we are seeking.
Never worked at camp? Come develop leadership and team skills through hands on training.

Become a professional role model for girls of all ages by learning and implementing the Girl Scout Promise and Law.
All employment applicants must be 18 years of age or older and do not have to have prior Girl Scout affiliation.
Volunteer opportunities available! Do you want to come to camp the same week as your daughter or troop members? You can volunteer at camp for their session. You may not be in the same unit with the girls you know, but you can be at camp with them. We need help in the kitchen, with arts and crafts, with hiking, or other activities.
For summer overnight camp you can volunteer for a couple hours, a day, a week or more. All volunteer applicants must be a registered Girl Scout for the current year. Adult volunteers must be 18 years of age or older and must have a current background check (if you haven't done this already, we can send you the link).
