The Village Leader is responsible for the direct supervision of eight senior counselors and four junior counselors, and for planning evening programs for a village of approximately 64 campers. Because of the demanding schedules, village leaders are provided private accommodations. Village leaders must be at least 21 years old or have completed their junior year in college. Counselors oversee every aspect of the campers day from waking up in the morning, through meals, cabin clean up, program areas, and bedtime. Counselors live in cabins that have two rooms for campers, ample bathrooms, and a private room and bathroom for the counselors.
Counselors receive approximately four hours off each day.
The ideal counselor will have a love for children and be able to interact with them on their level, while at the same maintaining a leadership position. Creativity, flexibility, and enthusiasm are essential. The Float Counselor has the same responsibilities as the counselor but is assigned to different cabins on a daily basis as needed. Senior and Float counselors must be at least 18 years old. The J.C. should possess the same qualities and skills of a Senior Counselor and be committed to learning from the Senior Counselors.
