We are hiring talented, motivated, and dedicated team members to join our family.
We seek to hire enthusiastic individuals dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children. Our counselors are the all-stars that make Camp Notre Dame unique.
There is no job like it. The experience you gain at summer camp is not taught in books or classrooms but hands-on skills that you can only learn by being in charge of a group of young campers. Camp Notre Dame will be one of your life’s most challenging and rewarding experiences. Being part of our team is life-changing not only for the campers but also for you.
Think about what future employers are looking for: work ethic, leadership, teamwork, job commitment, and good judgment. Camp Notre Dame delivers the experience you need for future employment and an experience you will never forget.
Staff who succeed and are happy at Camp Notre Dame are:
- Fun-loving people committed to creating a safe and fun experience for children.
- Enthusiastic team players.
- Able to put the needs of others ahead of their own.
- Enjoys being in nature and is comfortable being unplugged from technology.
