Work at Summer Camp
Camp staff are the heart of the Seven Mountains experience.
Be the reason someone remembers their summer
Many of us can name a staff member who made a week at camp unforgettable.
If you or someone you know, such as a child, grandchild, or neighbor, is looking for a summer job that matters, working on camp staff is a way to give that experience to the next group of Scouts.
