Naturalist/Outdoor Living Skills Summer Counselor (WASHINGTON MAINE)

Maine, Maine 00000 Maine USA

Vacancy expired!

Qualifications: Medomak Camp is in need of an experienced Naturalist, familiar with the flora and fauna of the mid-coast region, to lead interpretive hikes of our property (plant ID, wild edibles, tracks, etc) and to teach nature/observation games to our campers. Must be knowledgeable and sophisticated enough to lead an interpretive hike for adults, and also have the personality and patience to tailor activities to children, too. If you are looking for a fun summer job, an intimate and personal work setting where you get to be an active participant in the camp community, and valuable experience instructing kids and adults in the special skills that you have, then Medomak Camp for Families might be the right place for you.

We are looking for counselors with a mindfulness of sustainability and a desire to teach, who are self-motivated, outgoing and adventurous. The camp setting requires people who are flexible, enthusiastic, active, hard-working, while also considerate of safety. We hire counselors to teach activities (including lifeguards) to our campers and to take active roles in all areas of camp life.

Family Camp is a little different from your typical residential summer camp.

At family camp, kids come with their parents, so there is no need for counselors to bunk with the campers. Counselors live with each other and therefore have a little extra space and privacy than most camps offer.

Family camp is a great way to work outdoors, doing the things you love. Working with adults also provides you with great networking opportunities as our family campers work in all sorts of fields “ science, law, web start-ups¦etc. from all across the country.

Families choose Medomak for a variety of reasons “ they are looking for an outdoorsy vacation, parents want to relive the fun of their camp days, the children are too young to go to sleepaway camp alone, they want something all-inclusive¦whatever the reason, our goal is to provide a memorable and fun experience.

We encourage you to check out our website and get a feel for our camp. Being a camp counselor is an extremely rewarding job and something we encourage everyone to try at least once. Youll be glad that you did.
