Why Work at Camp Kingswood?
Working at Camp Kingswood is so much more than a summer job, and it gives you so much more than any office internship! It’s the ultimate experience full of adventure, personal and professional growth, and an opportunity to grow as a leader as a role model for children. All of this in an amazing facility in the lake region of Maine at the base of the White Mountains. Working at camp sets you up with the skills and tools you need for the rest of your life.
Working at camp taught me the priceless skills of patience and problem-solving. I learned how to communicate and work with people of all cultural and geographic backgrounds. I owe a lot of my success to both the things I learned at camp and what it taught me about myself.
