What are the responsibilities and job description for the Summer Camp Counselor position at SportsTyme?
Important Note: This is a seasonal position for a kids summer camp. We have multiple locations with spots available, but you only need to submit one application.
Who is this job suitable for?
SportsTyme Summer Camp has been around for over two decades, and we provide an experience that is as fun for campers as it is tiring and rewarding for the adults who try to keep up with them. At SportsTyme, we're burning lots of calories as we participate in a wide variety of sports and games every day. You don't have to be an athlete to work here (most of us aren't); however, you'll certainly be on your feet a lot. This job is good for the person who isn't afraid to let out their inner child and join the fun as kids learn, laugh, and play.
What are the times?
Our program typically runs for 8-10 weeks during the summer. You'll want to check our website for up-to-date information. Camp hours are typically from 7:30 AM to 6 PM on weekdays (coaches work in 8-hour shifts).
What do the duties include?
The following are given as examples. Training is provided. Other duties and responsibilities may be expected of you:
- Leading a group of about 15 kids in various pre-planned activities (ages 5-13)
- Precisely following instructions given by your camp director
- Memorizing and enforcing our general rules and policies, particularly those dealing with safety
- Reciting our discipline procedures and consistently enforcing them with all our campers
- Treating minor injuries and performing CPR if the need arises (training provided by the American Red Cross)
- Leading large groups (50 ) in camp spirit chants
- Organizing/maintaining sports equipment
- Cleaning tables, chairs, floors, and bathrooms
- Effectively communicating with your director and fellow coaches
What training is included? At SportsTyme, we hire for attitude, character, and the ability to follow instructions. We do not expect our hires to come pre-packaged with specialized knowledge about sports. As long as you have a strong willingness to learn, you'll find our program an excellent fit. Basic training in our various sports and activities happens before camp starts.
