Jobs in Portland OR: At the moment, we are primarily looking for: - male counselors to work with all age ranges of campers - female counselor with experience with older teen girls - a few leadership positions, as outlined on our web page All of our staff must be at least 19 years of age. People can have a job, a career, or a calling. Camp Augusta is looking for folks who have a calling. Work, play, learn, struggle and grow in a vibrant community this summer facilitating the growth of children, yourself and others in the community. Just because you can get a job at any camp, doesn't mean that you want a job at any camp. Camp Augusta is different than most camps because we operate on a structure of flat hierarchy, consensus and intention with every action. We also have many activities that you are unlikely to find at other camps. We are a residential summer camp located in the Sierra Nevada mountains of Northern California. We have six sessions during our season, 3 one week and 3 two week, with 90 campers (aged 8-16) each session. Our staff training begins on May 24th, and the main season runs through August 22. We aim to give children the experience of living without many of the modern conveniences that are present in their everyday lives. They get the chance to experience living in an open-air cabin without electricity. There are no televisions or stereos so they make their own music. We offer a variety of activities that they may not have tried or even seen before: sword fighting, whips, fire spinning, high and low ropes, archery and horseback riding to name a few. There is a great deal of information on our website regarding the philosophy of camp and the activities we offer. If you are interested in Camp Augusta, please look those over carefully. Our website, CampAugusta.org, has descriptions of all available positions under the "staff" heading. We have openings for counselors, kitchen, and a number of leadership positions.
