We have an extensive counseling staff at camp, many multi-talented folk and our Riding Staff are second-to-none! The riding staff introduce many first time campers to the joy of horseback riding as well as honing the skills of more advanced riders.
We teach Vaulting, Horsemanship and Riding lessons. In addition to our 3 large arenas, we have 300 acres of trails for the days when we decide to take a trail ride down the mountain as the sun sets.

Kennolyn Camps is a family owned and operated camp in the Santa Cruz mountains of California since 1946! Our Founders left camp to their children and grand-children to demonstrate their continued belief family values and tradition!
We work and play hard. If you have an outstanding work ethic, love working with children, desire to make a difference in the lives of everyone at camp (including yourself) then you may be what we are looking for. Feel free to look at our website and submit an online application if you meet the minimum requirements! (Eligible to work in the US. Have completed one year of College by June 2013 and be over the age of 18!)
At Kennolyn a counselor is a well rounded individual who can deal with anything they are given that day. We can train our staff to become lifeguards and archery instructors etc. but what we look for everyday is that person who really knows how to connect with others.
You may or may not have many of the skills listed below and that is ok. If you are a caring and compassionate person who is unafraid to be a positive role model for our campers then I definitely want to hear from you.
Long days start at 7:30am and end at 8:30pm when you put campers to bed and read to them until your free time begins at 9:45pm.
Meals and accomodation are included.
Lifelong friendships come for free.
