Camp Augusta

Located: Nevada City, California

Position Available: Summer Staff - Counselors, Admin, Kitchen and more

Salary Range: 2750-8000

Type: Residential coed summer camp

Contact: randall@campaugusta.org

Website: www.campaugusta.org

Camp Augusta is an 80 acre, non-profit, residential summer camp located in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of Northern California. We are a small camp with 90 campers per one to two week session and 50 staff. Our staff training begins May 25th so if your application is successful you would need to be here at camp for that date.
We aim to help campers develop self-confidence, independence, social skills (emotional intelligence), creativity, activity skills, environmental awareness and appreciation, friendships, and healthy living skills while having FUN in a small, tight, true community set in a beautiful forest. Kids also learn what most modern children have forgotten -- how to just play and be a kid without television, video games, the internet, canned games, or social pressure.
We are a fairly rustic camp, the cabins are open air and don't have any electricity (the bath houses do have electricity and hot water). This area gets little to no rain in the summer so with the exception of the lodge, kitchen, office and living quarters, everything is outside. Counselors take their campers on an overnight once a week where they fall asleep looking at the stars.
All of our 2010 Summer Staff Positions have been filled. We will begin hiring for the 2011 season in January.
