Are you looking for a summer filled with Science, Adventure, and FUN? Our outdoor adventure based Day Camp Program, also known as Pathfinders, is seeking energetic and knowledgeable counselors WITH SOME CLIMBING EXPERIENCE, to guide middle schoolers through action packed adventures in our horse, rock, and water themed weeks. One week you may be teaching campers about the essential skills associated with climbing the side of a rock face, and the next you may find yourself gearing up to paddle down the Clear Creek river through class three rapids, with a local rafting company of course. In addition to these high adventure outdoor activities, you will be there to introduce and inspire young campers to build confidence, develop new skills, and embrace the outdoors while also teaching them environmental science lessons along the way. If you love working with kids, thrive in nature, and want to spend the day outdoors adventuring, then this is the perfect summer job for you!
