Colorado Springs, United States Go West Camps Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

GO WEST CAMPS, Colorado Springs' premier Summer Day Camp is hiring for summer 2024. Looking for motivated staff to work out in the field with teens in an overnight camping setting providing middle schoolers and teens with unforgettable outdoor experiences.

TRIP AND TRAVEL LEADER - Our Trip and Travel Leaders are those who have experience in teen leadership and multiple of our core adventure program areas; paddle sports, mountain biking, hiking, and/or traditional overnight camping. They work closely with our middle school and teen leadership programs providing unforgettable overnight experiences. Previous experience guiding or work with outdoor youth development programs is preferred.

Working at Go West Camps isn't just a summer job...it's a way of life. While at camp you'll experience lots of fun and adventurous activities, but it is the community of understanding, friendship and encouragement that keeps campers and staff coming back year after year.

Grew up in 4-H or spent some time WWOOFing? We are looking for staff with experience farming or gardening. If you've ever had a job where you've bike commuted, Go West Camps might be a perfect fit for you. We use pedal powered transportation, and basic riding and bike maintenance skills are a real plus. Adventure programs are an important part of Go West Camps and require some of our staff members to have a greater level of certification and education.

We are looking for people with education and certification through nationally and internationally recognized organizations such as Red Cross, the American Canoe Association, National Outdoor Leadership School, League of American Bicyclists, USA Archery and others. An interest in teaching, leading, and working with youth is key for all of our staff members.

When it's time to get energized or wind down at camp, music can be key. We're always looking for staff who are excited to sing or play an instrument. We hope to use photos and video to document our campers' experience at camp. If you're a photographer or GoPro wiz, we need your skills.

Go West operates on a small group philosophy and staff will typically work with a group of 10-12 campers and one other staff member. Our campers participating in the trip and travel component range from 11-17 years old.

THE PERKS OF WORKING AT GO WEST

PROFESSIONAL TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE - Get a head start Thinking about a career in education or outdoor recreation? Get real life experience working at camp and honing your skills.

CERTIFICATIONS - Take it with you when you go All of the Go West Camps staff have First Aid and CPR. Go West has supported staff financially to attend certification programs through the American Mountain Guide Association, American Canoe Association, and the International Mountain Biking Association. These certifications can be an asset in your job search after the summer.

REFERENCES - Boost your resume We love telling everybody how great our staff is. Camp is the perfect opportunity to create relationships with people who want you to succeed at camp and beyond.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN SETTING - Location, location, location While our focus is on youth development, it doesn't hurt that we're surrounded by the scenic Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Not a bad place to play and explore during the summer

FOR FUN - The opportunities for fun while you are on staff at Go West Camps are boundless. We will hike, climb, mountain bike, paddle, shoot archery, fish, create art and swim, among many, many other great activities.
