Tweens ages 13-15 can register for this program if they are interested in working as a camp counselor in the future. This program is designed to foster leadership skills, effective discipline, filling out an application, interviewing and other work related responsibilities. Program participants will be expected to attend 2  days per week their first year and 3 days a week their second year - no more, no less. Jr Counselors will work along side their directors and camp counselors planning and improvising games and activities for the children at camp. A mid-summer evaluation will be given to provide insight for better development as a possible future employee. Camp location will vary with each participant. Camp runs from Mon. June 19- Friday, Aug 4. This is an unpaid position.  Please know that this program is designed to help form you for future jobs.   Participating in this program does not guarantee a paid position in the future with Sanford Parks and Recreation.  To work for Sanford Parks and Rec you must be of working age and apply in April during the vacation week - staff positions are limited as many staff return summer after summer.
