Best. Job. Ever.
Said every camp counsellor, ever. Get paid to be a leader, role model, and hero! If you’re energetic, encouraging, caring, kind – and have a soft spot for kids – you’ll love working in a camp setting. Have FUN cheering on children from the sidelines as they score a goal / bust a (dance) move / mount a horse / paint a canvas / get a hole-in-one / play guitar / build a robot.

We’re looking for CAMPassionate people to mentor children and youth at camp. Choose from one and two-week camps during December and March Break or work full-time hours in July and August as a Summer Camp counsellor, director or specialist. Earn competitive wages (spending money! savings toward school or a vacation!) while doing feel-good work that makes a difference in your community.

Priceless perk: the life-ready skills (teamwork, communication, problem-solving) you’ll be able to add to your resume so it stands out in the crowd.

#DYK Being a camp counsellor is also great training for a future career…in political leadership? Yes! Canada’s Prime Minister once worked as a camp counsellor.
