This summer, consider spending it making the difference in the life of a child, while gaining valuable career skills such as leadership, communication, public speaking, supervision, problem solving and decision making.
Outpost Summer Camp is looking for outgoing, amazing people to join our 2012 staff! You will learn valuable leadership, essential communication, and excellent decision-making skills that will help you in your future career. Our counselors are trusted leaders who make a difference in others' lives, and in their own, in just one summer at camp.
