If you answer yes to all of the questions below, you should definitely apply :

• Do you appreciate and agree with our self-directed approach for kids?
• Would sparking up conversations with staff, campers and parents fit in your comfort zone?
• Are you comfortable navigating challenging and sometimes sensitive interactions?
• Are you the type of person who can't rest until you have done everything possible to make someone feel cared for? Like, if someone you knew was in need, would you do more than send them a "thinking of you" text?
• Can you multitask like you are a Hollywood Power Agent all while keeping calm, level-headed and nice?
• Do you have the stamina to keep up (Literally) with 4 - 12 year old's bursting with energy and creative potential? And, can you bench press the equivalent of a kindergartner? (Just Kidding but can you lift up to 30lbs?)
