Summer Camp USA gives you the opportunity to work as a camp counsellor and experience the most fulfilling and challenging summer camp jobs you can imagine. You'll work hard but in beautiful surroundings, whilst undoubtedly having fun and making lifelong friendships as well as getting the chance to travel to the parts of America you've always wanted to see.

The programme gives people over the age of 18 the opportunity to spend 8 to 9 weeks living with children between May and August on an American summer camp. You could be teaching 6-16 year kids activities which range from the purely recreational and fun, to serious sports, to more culturally or educationally based activities, in a safe and supportive environment.
