Camp Staff

 
 

Our Staff

At Camp Weed, we’re committed to finding the greatest, loudest, most enthusiastic, and most qualified staff members we can. We look for our staff members to have leadership experience, a passion for children, and a love for serving others. Most of our staff members are college-aged, along with a few high school students, who give up their summers to invest in the lives of our campers.

 

We provide all trainings and certifications needed to facilitate our activities, including lifeguard certifications, archery training, and high ropes training. We also hold a 10 day staff training to prepare all staff for leading activities, managing behavior issues, working as a team, and more.

 

2025 Staff

This summer our staff will be made up of Leadership Staff, Program Staff, Cabin Staff, and Support Staff. Applications for both new and returning staff are live now and can be found at the links at the bottom of the page. Brief job descriptions can also be found below.

The deadline for applications is January 12, 2025. Emails for interview requests may begin to go out before that time. If there are still cabin counselor positions to be filled after this date, they may be filled on a rolling basis.

If you have any questions, concerns, or just want to talk more about what it’s like to work at Camp Weed, reach out to our director Sam Marxsen at sam@campweed.org or at 386-364-5250.
