THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN WORKING AT SPIRIT IN THE PINES! All young adults who are 18+ and will be one year post high school (as of June 2024) are eligible to apply for a paid staff position at Spirit in the Pines Camp next summer.
LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE FOR SUMMER 2024: Our onsite leadership for camp will include the Camp Director (Sarah), the Assistant Director (Meghan), and the Program Director (Caleb). Two of these three leaders will be onsite at all times, except for family camp weekends. On family camp weekends only one of these three leaders will be present, and they will be joined by a pastor or staff member from St. Andrew. The Program Lead (an “add-on” described further in the application) will work directly with these three leaders and will be involved in the facilitation of all aspects of camp planning.
APPLICATION: The online employment application is linked in the button below. Interviews will take place during the first week of January, with all callbacks occurring on the same day, ideally on January 17th and no later than January 31st.
17 OPEN POSITIONS: We are looking to hire 1 Health Care Manager and 16 program staff members (Ages 18+). We are also offering paid “add-on’s” that each consist of an additional weekly task set. Anyone applying for a program staff position can also apply for one of these additional responsibilities. One of the 16 positions can become a Kitchen Assistant position if an applicant had interest in that role (with the associated “add-on” for the kitchen). You can indicate your interest in all of these positions and the “add-on’s” through our single online application form. The descriptions within the application include salary and benefit information for all roles.
9 OPEN “ADD-ON” ROLES: These 9 positions include: Social Media Specialist, Research Analyst, Canteen Coordinator, Videographer, Inclusion Facilitator, Maintenance Assistant, Arts & Crafts Organizer, Kitchen Assistant, and Program Lead.
EMPLOYMENT DATES: All positions run from May 30 – August 16, with 12 hours of required online training to be scheduled during the month of May on Zoom. All positions include 2 days off per week, taken continuously or broken up as 16 hours over multiple days. Additionally, everyone can request up to 9 paid days off for vacation or illness. We are open to considering partial summer positions, and that would be discussed during the interview process.
REQUIREMENTS: Must possess good physical stamina with long hours and the majority of time spent outdoors. Prior camp or camper experience at Spirit in the Pines or another camp is helpful but not required.
REFERENCES: All applicants must also provide two personal references, and applications will not be considered until those have been received. A link for your references will be emailed directly to them after you submit your application.
