SUMMER JOBS

Pick a job this summer thats fun and can change the world

At Swift Nature Camp you're not only choosing a job, you're choosing a family — a summer family of 20 staff members that will stay with you for years to come! Located in the Northwoods of Wisconsin.

Swift Nature Camp is an overnight nature camp for boys and girls ages 6-15. Campers can enjoy an active Nature Center, Pet Zoo and Department of Natural Resources sponsored programs, plus recreational activities that include canoe and backpack trips, horseback riding, swimming, arts & crafts, team courses, archery, sailing, water skiing, tubing and sports.

Blending wonderful camp activities while increasing a child's appreciation for nature, science and the environment, Counselors will help children develop lifelong skills. The Camp’s small size allows staff to promote each child's personal development by providing fun, friendship and leadership in a supportive and noncompetitive environment.

Most Cabin Counselors also have the opportunity to specialize in teaching different activities. SNC will provide you with instructions, lesson plans, encouragement, guidance and support before camp begins. Compensation starts at $2,000 (room & board included). Camp runs from June 10th–August 14th (special schedules can be accommodated). SNC’s goal is to put together a small team of like-minded people who want to change the world one child at a time.
