"Your camp allowed my daughter to enter a world where she knew she wouldn't be judged or bullied. She feels nothing but love, togetherness, but most importantly, she feels accepted. I cannot thank you enough for allowing me financial help to get her back to camp for the past three summers, and for helping to make my daughter a better, confident, happy young lady."

Adventure Trips Summer Employment

Adventure Trip Leaders, co-lead several 13-day and 6-day adventure trips for small groups of teenagers throughout the summer. Our trips go to various locations around North America. All of our trips are based out of Camp Burgess, which is our overnight camp on Cape Cod.

We offer the opportunity for teens to work together, develop communication skills, and learn to live within a group. We provide a safe, educational, and fun atmosphere for teenagers to sample different types of outdoor activities. Trip activities are usually taught by our outside contractors and include bicycle touring, white-water rafting, windsurfing, glacier hiking, guitar lessons, farming, mountain biking, canoeing, sea kayaking, surfing, sailing, scuba diving, and more.

We are looking for safety minded, fun, energetic, responsible, and passionate adults. More important than hard skills is honesty, integrity, and a strong desire to work with teens in the outdoors. Applicants must be at least 21 years old, have a clean driving record and currently hold or be willing to obtain First Aid, CPR, and Lifeguard Certifications. Wilderness First Aid and Wilderness First Responder are highly desirable. Additional experience in kayaking, canoeing, bicycle touring, and bike repair are a plus. Competitive salary. Opportunities for continued fall and spring employment in our Outdoor Education program may be available.
