Camp Counselor Jobs in Oregon

A Camp Counselor in the fitness and recreation industry plays an integral role in organizing and leading various physical activities, games, and sports for camp attendees. They are responsible for ensuring the physical and emotional safety of campers, fostering an inclusive and fun environment, and developing and implementing fitness and wellness programs. They often serve as role models and leaders, promoting healthy living, teaching new fitness skills, and cultivating a positive camp culture.

Essential skills for a Camp Counselor include strong leadership, excellent communication, and the ability to work well with a diverse group of people. They should also have in-depth knowledge of fitness principles and be able to motivate and inspire campers to participate in activities. Certifications in CPR, first aid, and water safety are commonly required due to the inherent physical risks associated with many camp activities. Previous job roles that could lead to becoming a Camp Counselor might include Fitness Instructor, Lifeguard, or Youth Sport Coach. Other relevant roles might include roles in childcare settings, such as a Childcare Assistant or an After-School Program Coordinator.
