Thank you for your interest in becoming a member of the Stone Mountain Adventures Staff Team! Our success at SMA is thanks in large part to the talents, abilities, and hard work of our staff. That's why we invest so much time and attention to hiring the best staff team possible.
Camp counseling is one of the best jobs in the world. There's no better way to spend a summer than at camp. You will have the opportunities to make friends from around the world, learn valuable outdoors and social facilitation skills, have a ridiculous amount of fun, and make a real difference in a teenager’s life. The experiences you have and the friendships you make with the campers and other counselors will stay with you for years to come.
Camp counseling is not always an easy job. In order to do well in camp, it’s important to have a genuine interest in children.Job satisfaction has to be a key element in your desire to work at a summer camp: unless you truly enjoy living and working with kids on a 24-hour basis, it is likely best not to seek employment at a summer camp. The rewards you derive from working with children must be significant, or the job will grow very tiresome during the course of the summer and your desire to continue employment may wane. Enjoying your time with our campers is critical. Being able to relate to teenagers while assuming responsibilities of supervision and care is an essential quality of a successful staff member. In short, we’re seeking talented, fun, outgoing, and enthusiastic individuals who can provide quality instruction on activities. Our philosophy is that “you can never expect a camper to be more excited about an activity than you are.”
As part of SMA staff, you will be a role model for our campers. Your behavior will have an enormous impact upon the lives of these youngsters! It stands to reason, therefore, that we are seeking individuals with high moral character. In the past, our staff members have exhibited good sportsmanship, strong loyalty, honesty, and the ability to work hard in order for the camp experience to be a memorable & positive one for our campers. We intend to continue this tradition at SMA this coming summer.
