We're looking for responsible, enthusiastic, and spirited individuals who can serve as role models, mentors, and coaches at camp for Summer 2025.
The Pocono Springs Camp experience is 6 & 1/2 weeks long, with 10 days of orientation and 5 weeks of traditional summer camp.

We welcome all feedback and make it a priority to provide support to our counselors, as well as a platform for you to bring your passion and creativity to camp! So get ready for the hardest job you'll ever love!
Our counselors work in teams of 3-4, living, eating, playing, dancing, singing, and supervising 7-12 campers throughout the summer.

To be a successful cabin counselor, you must possess the following qualities: patience, fairness, playfulness, eagerness to participate, compassion, listening and communication skills, and a genuine desire to give the kids their best summer ever. Camp Counselors can have a profound impact on the campers they lead. It is a position that demands incredible responsibility and care, and you will be on call 24/7. But it will be one of the most rewarding experiences you'll ever have!
