Summer Camp 2011 Opportunities

COUNSELORS

What a great way to spend a week of your summer…helping kids have a really memorable week at camp. Counselors are an integral part of the success of a YMCA camp experience. If this sounds like something you'd like to do, here are a few guidelines.

Each Counselor is selected by the Camp Director for the week you're interested in attending. All positions are "volunteer" and training is mandatory. General information is given below. Your Camp Director may have some additional criteria as well.

For Coed Youth Camp, you must be at least 16 years old. For Junior High Camp you must be at least 18 years old and for High School Coed Camp you must be at least 21 years old.

Under the leadership of the Camp Director's staff, and with lots of support, you are responsible for overseeing the activities of up to ten campers. You must complete a Volunteer Application and provide verifiable references. All YMCA volunteers have criminal record screening as well.

It is helpful, but not mandatory, that you have attended a prior YMCA camp.

If you are interested in applying, download the Volunteer Application in PDF format.

The camp dates and directors' names are listed below. For additional information contact Ray Calame at (818) 240-4130, ext 24 or email him at rcalame@glenymca.org.

Thank you for your interest!
