Counselor Details
Location
Spend your summer in the great outdoors! The 2,100 acres that make up the Anne Springs Close Greenway are protected in perpetuity and will never be developed beyond low-impact recreation. And recreate we shall! Campers participate in kayaking, archery, creek stomps, campfires, games, nature walks, fishing and more!
Opportunities
Find your fit as a Camp Counselor for preschool-rising 1st grade (Tiny Timbers & Little Critters), Camp Counselor for rising 1st-3rd grades (Seekers), Camp Counselor for rising 3rd-6th grades (Trekkers) or Camp Counselor for rising 7th-9th grades (Adventurers).
Impact
Make a difference in the community by helping kids experience nature and outdoor programming in a safe, fun and friendly environment that builds confidence and friendships. Thanks to financial assistance through the Anne Springs Close Bridge Program, many campers will experience the outdoors in ways they have never experienced it before.

F.A.Q.
Whom may I contact with questions?
Email Anne Springs Close Greenway Youth Programs Director, Ardener Taylor. She loves kids, volleyball and singing, and she’s looking for a 12-step program to cure her addiction to s’mores.
What percent of the job is outdoors?
About 90%. Bring your waterbottle, sunscreen, and comfy/sturdy footwear!
How old do I need to be to apply?
Camp counselors need to be at least 16 years old before the first day of camp. However, rising 9th-12th graders may participate in our Leaders in Training (LIT) program, which prepares them for future roles at camp and qualifies as volunteer hours.
