The Employee Experience
Working at Camp Champions is an experience unlike any other! You'll get to work with ~100 other people from nearly every continent on earth. Throughout the summer, these people will become your best friends. We often find that counselors feel they make more meaningful connections and friendships in the three months at camp than they do the rest of the year!

We prefer our counselors have completed at least one year of college or are at least 19 years of age.
Room and Board
Room and board will be provided as part of the compensation package. Counselors will be provided three meals per day and will sleep in cabins with their campers during the summer.
Employee Perks
Camp Champions offers our employees discounts on many local food and entertainment options, including half off admission to a waterpark located 30 minutes from camp and numerous local restaurants. Staff will also get access to huge discounts on outdoor brands such as Chacos (40% off!) and many others!
Getting Here and Getting Around
Transportation from the airport to camp will be provided with prior communication to our team. We will also provide free transportation on nights off for counselors who do not have their own vehicles, though we welcome those who would like to drive (parking available at camp)!
