Apply at: www.ramapocamp.com
We run a wide variety of activities outside that get children moving, playing, thinking, problem solving, and competing. Our courts, fields, and programs are custom made to fit the age, strength, size and ability levels of our campers (ages 3 to 13). Our arts areas have covered decks open to the sights and sounds of camp, but protected from the rain. Each art, cooking area has an indoor space with modern equipment and plenty of storage space, These areas have been built to be art / cooking areas. Our campers are too young to "hate" any activity. So it is our job to "represent" these activities in a way that no one has shown them before. We want them leaving our programs feeling "I can do this". No matter what their level. We are looking for those educators who would enjoy being a part of this environment and learning in this environment. We have teaching aids, curriculum, and plenty of support ready to help you spark an interest.
