Location: Camp Sycamore Hills in Ashland City

Camp Sycamore Hills, established in 1958, is situated on 742 acres of land divided by Sycamore Creek. Campers may experience crossing the swinging bridge, riding horses in the equestrian arena, and sliding down the slide. Activities include art, archery, canoeing, CORCLs, gaga, high adventure, horse programming, outdoor skills, swimming, tree climbing, zip line, and more! Camp Sycamore Hills has cabins and screened cabins, with bathrooms located in or near all sleeping units. Our campers agree that Camp Sycamore Hills is truly "a place to be me!"

Unit Counselors directly supervise a group of 6-12 campers in daily activities and foster a positive camp experience while creating a safe and welcoming environment. They are responsible for managing camper behaviors, following and adapting group schedules, and generally creating camp magic.

On a daily basis, this could include:

• Leading pre-planned or spur of the moment activities
• Working with campers to design their camp day
• Ensuring that all campers feel a sense of belonging through activities and conflict resolution
• Coaching campers through tough interactions

It could also mean swimming, rock climbing, showing campers cool trees on a hike, and eating spaghetti with a whisk at dinner!

We are proud to create an inclusive community of campers and staff who come from diverse backgrounds and value each other. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging at camp, to build confidence among our campers, and to support our staff in reaching their eventual career goals while supporting the Girl Scouts mission of building girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.

• Staff must be over 18
• Bring a great attitude
• A desire to work with children and learn from your co-workers and to connect with the camp community

Paid training is provided for everything else!

Successful candidates will be adaptable, responsible, and have a strong desire to learn new things and better themselves. We consider it our duty and pleasure to help staff reach their goals during the summer, and we want to staff to be able to share those goals, to advocate for themselves and their campers, and to generally enjoy spending time with children and others in the outdoors.
