About Camp Daisy and Harry Stein
Camp Stein is place where everyone can be themselves! We strive to create a community from which young people derive a greater sense of self-esteem & an enhanced pride in their Jewish identity. Spending time with friends, cabin-mates and counselors & learning about our rich heritage give our campers an experience they will never forget. Even more than a community, Camp Stein is a family.
Our staff have the opportunities to build relationships with one another, for professional growth, to have fun participating in all of the activities with their campers, and so much more!
The Employee Experience
Our counselors and specialist staff live in cabins with the campers. Everyone has their own bed and storage space for their belongings. We have a lounge for all of staff to keep items and hang out with other staff during their time off.
Throughout the day staff are spending time leading their activities and activities for their campers! Campers love getting to know their staff and enjoy when they teach them about hobbies and activities they like to do. Camp is all about having fun! We have themed days, silly camp songs and traditions (new staff pick up on it very quickly!), color wars, and more to provide a unique but AMAZING experience. Camp is place to be silly and to be yourself!
Staff who spend a summer(or more than one!) at camp gain valuable leadership, teamwork, problem solving and additional skills than can be used in other endeavors throughout the year.
At the end of the summer staff leave camp knowing that it is a place they can call home and with lifelong memories and friendships.

We look for competent, energetic applicants who demonstrate a love of working with young people; a desire to help build a community; an ability to work independently as well as part of a team; and a connection or desire to learn about Judaism.

We provide training at the start of the summer season and offer ongoing support throughout the summer so your experience is as great as the campers’.
