Swim Instructors/WSI - Summer Camp Job/Internship - (PAID)

Spend your summer on the Waterfront at Camp Towanda!

Camp Towanda is the premier co-ed, 7 week sleep-away camp for children ages 7-17. We offer a well rounded program of activities from sports, to the waterfront, Outdoor Adventure and the Arts.

Camp Towanda is looking for experienced swim instructors to join our Waterfront Team this summer. Swim Instructors should be experienced swimmers, coaching and instructing experience is an asset. We will provide American Red Cross Lifeguard and WSI certification during Orientation. 

Our Waterfront facilities include our swimming pool and Sunset Lake, a 30 acre natural spring fed lake featuring several inflatables (giant slide, volleyball trampoline, challenge dome), tarzan swing, paddle boards, sailing, waterski and more!

Swim Instructors teach campers, both boys and girls of ages 7-17 with varying abilities and experience in the water. Instructors will be responsible, along with the Waterfront Director, for creating and implementing lesson plans, tracking camper progress, as well as lifeguarding duties when not teaching.

Waterfront Staff also work with the campers as a counselor, living in a cabin with campers and other co-counselors. Working at Camp Towanda as a counselor provides hands-on experience and leadership opportunities, while building skills that hiring managers are looking for, such as flexibility, adaptability, initiative, self-direction, social and cross-cultural skills, productivity, accountability, leadership and responsibility. When you are not at your specialty, you will be with your assigned group of campers as a counselor, ensuring safety, team-building, growth and development in all activities and in life at camp.
