Job Description

GO WEST CAMPS, Colorado Springs' premier Summer Day Camp is hiring staff for summer 2024. Here you will find all the community and connection of an overnight camp but have your nights and weekends free! Go West staff work Monday-Friday, 35-40 hours per week, May 20th-August 2nd.

FARM CAMP STAFF - Farm Camp Staff bring our farm to camp by teaching kids about animals, art, and agriculture. Staff responsibilities also include farm chores; watering the land, feeding, cleaning, and caring for animals. This work may require time outside of normal camp hours. Experience farming, gardening, animal care, and/or child care is preferred.

Working at Go West Camps isn't just a summer job...it's a way of life. While at camp you'll experience lots of fun and adventurous activities, but it is the community of understanding, friendship and encouragement that keeps campers and staff coming back year after year.

Grew up in 4-H or spent some time WWOOFing? We are looking for staff with experience farming or gardening.

Go West operates on a small group philosophy and staff will typically work with a group of 12 campers and one other staff member. The ages of our campers range from 5 to 15.


THE PERKS OF WORKING AT GO WEST

PROFESSIONAL TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE - Get a head start! Thinking about a career in education or outdoor recreation? Get real life experience working at camp and honing your skills.

CERTIFICATIONS - Take it with you when you go! All of the Go West Camps staff have First Aid and CPR. Go West has supported staff financially to attend certification programs through the American Mountain Guide Association, American Canoe Association, and the International Mountain Biking Association. These certifications can be an asset in your job search after the summer.

REFERENCES - Boost your resume! We love telling everybody how great our staff is. Camp is the perfect opportunity to create relationships with people who want you to succeed at camp and beyond.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN SETTING - Location, location, location! While our focus is on youth development, it doesn't hurt that we're surrounded by the scenic Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Not a bad place to play and explore during the summer!

FOR FUN - The opportunities for fun while you are on staff at Go West Camps are boundless. We will hike, climb, mountain bike, paddle, shoot archery, create art and learn about animals, among many, many other great activities.
