Summer Day Camp Counselor

Looking for an unforgettable summer? ☀

At Gate Hill, we’re building an incredible team for Summer 2026—and we’re looking for teachers, coaches, high school, college, and graduate students who are off for the summer and excited to work with kids ages 3–13 in a high-energy, supportive environment.

Transportation assistance is available (pending eligibility)—and staff who take on bus counselor roles earn additional pay while helping make camp accessible and fun for our campers from the moment their day begins!

Gate Hill Day Camp blends a caring, inclusive community with an expansive, top-tier program, all on a beautiful, state-of-the-art campus. A summer at Gate Hill means making a real impact on kids, building lifelong friendships, and developing skills that go far beyond camp.

We’re looking for enthusiastic, responsible, and positive staff to join our team!
