Pros

Meeting new people Room and board included Meals made for you Travel on days off is available

Cons

Poor communication between director and counsellors. Director will complain about a counsellors performance but will not speak to them to let them know areas they need to improve. Can be a lot of pressure on counsellors as usually short staffed Counsellors views aren’t always listened to

Pros

Years later, I still think that my work at this summer camp was one of the more formative experiences I've had-- in a positive, character building way. You are given a lot of responsibility to lead and opportunities to rise to challenges. This experience can be what you make of it. Working 24/7 with other young women is a one-of-a-kind experience that you probably won't ever get again. Working 24/7 with kids is also a one-of-a-kind experience that will teach you more about your work ethic and values than most other jobs. As a bonus, it's also a beautiful place and you'll make incredible friendships through this intense but dynamic job.

Cons

This job can be draining, but that is true of all summer camp counselor jobs. As mentioned by others, I didn't get paid until the end of my experience. So long as you are ok getting paid at the end of the summer (you do have room and board provided throughout), I think there is a lot to gain out of working here. Do check with with them directly though, because the timeline when they pay and how often might have changed since I worked there.
