General Counselor
Unit Leader/Head Counselor
Some people spend their summer behind a screen. Others spend it leading 30-40 kids through the best summer of their lives.
Camp Thunderbird for Boys is hiring a Unit Leader for our 5th and 6th grade village.
You'll manage a team of 10-15 staff and 30 kids, helping run evening programs, and act as the steady hand when things get hard. When a counselor is overwhelmed, you show up. When a camper needs more than their staff can give, you step in. When the village needs energy, you bring it.
What you'll actually do:
These people become your family. That's not a tagline, it's what happens every single summer at Thunderbird.
Why Thunderbird?
If you're ready to lead, actually lead, we want to hear from you.
