Consider a life-changing experience at Camp Westminster for summer employment!

We've been "Changing Lives Since 1925" and this summer will be no different. There are lots of summer jobs out there (flipping burgers, serving coffee, cleaning streets...) but why not work outdoors, with people from all over the world, making friends for a lifetime AND impacting the lives of children and youth? We promise it will be a summer you won't forget- just ask the staff who come back year after year. Tell me more about this job.  I want to apply now.

The terrific staff members at Camp Westminster are one of the big reasons so many campers love to return year after year!  Staff are recruited from local churches, area colleges, camp alumni, and from around the world. Through an intensive staff training, this diverse group of individuals bonds and grows together to form a warm and welcoming community to any camper who comes to CW. We look for: enthusiasm; a strong work ethic; people who take initiative; individuals who LOVE children and youth; and someone who desires to know God better and grow in their faith.

 

Information about summer staff for parents/guardians of campers 

All applicants are well screened and evaluated before a decision is made to hire them.  All applicants must fill out an in-depth application that covers many areas of their personal and spiritual ability and experience to work at Camp Westminster. We require a minimum of three references for every applicant and the executive director speaks with each reference. A state-certified background check is conducted on each applicant.  We only hire individuals who we would trust with our own children!

 

Staff training (held prior to the first day of camp) includes focused attention on each individual's area of employment, general policies, procedures and safety standards. We train in program areas, leadership skills, outttrip skills and daily life at Camp Westminster. The strong staff community only enhances the fun and spiritually nurturing time your camper will have while at Camp Westminster!
