$3000 + $150 travel allowance

Perks:

We provide housing, meals, and snacks for the whole summer! Laundry is on-site, bathrooms are inside cabins, and our lake is private.

We are so excited you found this opportunity at Camps K&E! We believe it's never too late to go to sleepaway camp, and that there's no job more fun or fulfilling than caring for and mentoring kids in a beautiful, natural setting. At K&E, you'll spend your days outside leading, laughing, creating, and being part of a supportive community you won't experience anywhere else.

Camp is hard work: high-energy, long hours, but deeply rewarding. We're looking for people who like a challenge and are passionate about making a difference. We truly believe this isn't just a summer job. It's a chance to grow, unplug, make lifelong friends, and develop durable, real-world skills. We can't wait to meet you!
