Still need a summer job?
Love working with kids? Fan of the outdoors? Want a fun and rewarding job this summer set in a Christian environment? Bethelwoods summer camp in York, SC is taking applications through May for anyone 18 or older who may be interested in working as a camp counselor May 29-August 4.
Room and board are included for the summer, and there is a six-day break Friday, June 29th – Friday, July 6th. Most weekends are also free; room and board still available. Pay for first time counselors is $190/wk before taxes; additional certification in lifeguarding or first aid, as well as musical ability and willingness to lead or co-lead nightly worship activities, may constitute additional pay by the final week.
