Summer Camp Jobs

Working at a summer camp can go way beyond being a counselor. Hiking instructor, swimming instructor, hockey coach, martial arts trainer, magician, farmer, etiquette coach, French teacher, film teacher, modeling instructor... There are summer camps for rollerblading, for computer programming, for the performing arts, for marine science, for business, for the circus, for anything you can imagine that's legal to teach a 12-year-old. Whatever your skills, there's a summer camp that needs them. These are a few of the places that you can link up with them.
