WonderKids Summer Enrichment Program
Summer Behavioral Site Coordinator

About this Program:
Welcome to WonderKids, an exciting program by the Rural Arts Collaborative designed to help
children soar in creativity and emotional resilience! Our summer enrichment camp gives every
child the summer camp experience of their dreams, filled with laughter, exploration, and
imaginative activities using natural materials. Campers are onsite from 8:30-3:00 each day, with
staff working on both sides of that timeframe to prepare and clean up. WonderKids serves kids in
grades K-6, Monday through Friday for 5 weeks in July and August. Camp training begins in June.

At WonderKids, kids get to be kids! Our warm and nurturing environment is staffed by caring
adults who support emotional growth and foster collaboration among young campers.
WonderKids has two main components—an afterschool program during the academic year and a
Summer Enrichment Program in July and part of August—WonderKids is all about creativity and
fun. We would like to work with qualified, enthusiastic employees who want full-time summer
employment, as well as energetic, passionate people who are looking for year-round, part-time
employment in both the Afterschool and Summer programs.
