Summary

Looking for the perfect in-between adventure—whether you’re taking a gap year, a semester off, or bridging the time between summer camp and ski season? 

Join Camp Jewell YMCA as an Outdoor Center Program Instructor and spend your fall leading outdoor education programs, ropes and teambuilding programs, and dynamic activities for middle and high school groups, plus weekend programs with college students and retreats. 

With a huge variety in each day and opportunities to earn certifications like CPR/First Aid and lifeguarding, Camp Jewell is a fun, fast-paced environment, where no two days are ever the same.
