Camp Counselors support Camp Instructors during the running of Hagley Summer Camps. These opportunities are for youth volunteers, age range 15-18. This activity will earn approximately 60 hours of volunteer time. Counselors assist with activity set-up, preparation, and clean-up; group management and conflict resolution; and setting a friendly, engaging atmosphere throughout the camp week. There are two camp sessions: July 15-19 and August 5-9. Daily report times are 8:30 am-4:30 pm.

Note:
1) Training is provided in advance of camp week (dates July 9 and 10 or July 30 and 31). Attendance at training is mandatory.
2) You must commit to the full week of camp.
3) You will be interviewed for this activity prior to final assignment.

• During STEAM Discovery Camp (August 5-9) campers investigate scientific and engineering concepts and complete hands-on challenges. Each camp day will focus on a different topic in science and include subjects in life science, physical science, technology, and engineering. Finally, there will be a Science Expo at the end of the week where campers can show off their projects and favorite demonstrations for their families.


• Before there were makerspaces, early makers were plying their trades. Learning the Trades Camp (August 5-9) offers campers a chance to explore many of the different skills and jobs of the 19th century. Campers will become powdermen, stone masons, coopers, farmers, teachers, printers, and more. A fun "jobs fair" at the end of the week will mark the end of the campers’ apprenticeships as they share their new skills with their families.
