Serving at Camp is Serious Business
As a Camp Rocky Creek Employee, you are:
- Committing to the vision, mission, values and philosophy of camp. By taking ownership of what Camp is about, you are taking responsibility for a successful operation in all areas of camp at all times.
- Connecting with others and nature in a meaningful way. You will experience growth in spirit, mind and body while at camp. Serving kids on our 120+ acres of forested land in Cornwall, PA is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Unplugged and surrounded by God’s creation, connection is inevitable.
- Celebrating every moment. It doesn’t take long to realize that being a camp employee is one of the most rewarding jobs you will ever have. Every day, camp employees celebrate small victories and huge successes. Whether it’s teaching a camper how to shoot an arrow or helping them overcome a fear of heights, you will find things to celebrate in every moment.
The Lebanon Valley Family YMCA requires all staff to have background checks in advance of reporting to camp.
