Volunteer Camp Counselor Training

The first part of this training will be apart of the Camps Assistant/Peer Partner Training. The second half of this training will go over behavior management and paperwork. Following this training, volunteers will then need to shadow for the first day of their volunteer week. The Volunteer Camp Counselor will assist our NAC camps on a weekly basis (Monday – Friday.) In this role, you will be responsible to help provide a safe, structured environment for campers with varying developmental and physical abilities. Volunteer Camp Counselors will help our full time camp staff to support camp participants to achieve goals in socialization, independence, and personal skills while engaging in adaptive recreation and adventure programming, including indoor and outdoor climbing, paddle sports, water sports, cycling, mountain biking, archery, pickleball, teambuilding, high ropes course, and equestrian activities. You will have more responsibility than volunteer camp assistants and we be expected to support in behavior management and ongoing goal assessments for campers. You must have CPR/First aid training complete in order to volunteer in this role.
