Located at the base of Sauratown Mountain, just 30 minutes north of Winston-Salem, Camp Hanes offers 500 acres of forest, two lakes, multiple streams, a plethora of outdoor activities, and a short drive to two different state parks. From archery to hiking, water ecology to zip-lining, you are sure to learn new skills and make lifelong friends.
Outdoor Educator and conference facilitators will assist to implement science based curriculum, and help facilitate conference group activities. Facilitators will gain greater knowledge and skills of camp operation during the shoulder seasons and improve their teaching ability with elementary and middle school age youth. Some time will also be spent helping facilitate weekend groups with adults and families. We aim to make trips both fun and educational through ecology classes, evening activities, group games, and team building activities. Facilitators will also assist with running meals, cleaning, and other maintenance as required. Staff do not stay in the cabin with groups, but are responsible for helping host and oversee the group’s needs while at camp.
We are looking for team members who are flexible, team oriented and demonstrate the YMCA Character development traits of caring, honest, respect, responsibility, and faith.
This is a full-time, seasonal position at YMCA Camp Hanes, from Mid-August thru Mid-November with potential for a spring position. This position does require weekend work. Housing is included and meals are provided while guests are on site.
