We run a well rounded, wholesome program for all levels of interests and abilities for kids ages 6-17. Our program is very diversified-Tennis and Waterskiing are just as popular as Drama, Arts&Crafts, Rocketry, Radio and Lacrosse! Every department at Camp Towanda is important, valued and professional.

Staff members are required to have completed at least one year of college, submit qualified references, be interviewed and possess the skill or talent necessary to care, be attentive, supportive and responsible for children.

Not only do we take pride in our beautiful 250 acre facility, but also our superb and dedicated staff. The role of a counselor varies. Department heads, specialists, group leaders, general counselors and support staff all play a vital role as being a part of the nucleus of the camp experience. Applicants must be patient, fun-loving, spirited, and genuinely concerned with the welfare and development of young people. In fact: we only look for staff members who will serve as role models for our campers.

The role of a camp counselor encompasses a lot of different areas and the hours are extensive. You need to have plenty of stamina! There is not much down time for the entire summer. It is also an experience for a lifetime. You will develop lifelong friendships here. The majority of our staff returns for several years.

We invite General Counselors to participate in a Lifeguard training course sponsored by the American Red Cross beginning approximately June 12th. Successful candidates will receive ARC certification and an additional $100 for assisting as a lifeguard at the pool or lake during the camp season.

The dates of camp are from June 20th-August 15th. Some departments arrive earlier for additional training and certification. Optional PRE and POST season work is available from Late May thru early September. Those staff that stay on through Labor Day receive an additional bonus for Post Camp.

Please feel free to contact us on our Job Line 800 923-2267 with any questions.

We look forward to hearing from you soon and hoping that you will be a part of our camp community in 2009, the 86th year of Camp Towanda.
