• Participate in the Camp's swim program and special events (including, but not limited to, Theme Days, Trips).

• Communicate regularly to Camp Director observations and concerns regarding the needs of individual campers, including any difficulties, where necessary.

• Assume responsibilities for the health and safety of campers, with complete awareness of campers' whereabouts and allergies at all times.

• Provide support and assistance to campers and nurture campers at all times while respecting their privacy and sense of self-worth.

• Come prepared every day to fully participate in the Camp’s activities, including the swim program.

• Read and fully comply with the policies of Camp as set forth in the Staff Manual that you will be given during Orientation and always comply with its rules and regulations, including dress code and emergency procedures.

• Exude enthusiasm for Camp life and activities and seek to incorporate the Camp’s values including compassion, kindness, leadership, courage, and mindfulness, while also acting as a role model for campers.

• Ability to stand and walk for several hours, often outside during the summer season.

• Ability to lift 25 lbs.

• Staff Shirt (provided) and sneakers required while on duty; and appropriate swimming attire required for swimming.
