Come spend the Summer of a Lifetime in The Berkshires!  6/16/2025 - 8/10/2025

Camp Danbee is currently hiring passionate, skilled individuals to be great roles models for our campers! Our camp counselors spend their summer in various roles at camp, instructing our campers in everything from athletics, waterfront, outdoor adventure, creative arts and more!

The Role:

You will serve a dual role as a counselor at Camp Danbee. Those roles include being cabin counselor and program instructor in your skilled program area. As a cabin counselor, you and one to three other co-counselors will live in a cabin with 10-12 campers, whom you will supervise for the summer. As a program instructor, you will help prepare and lead instructional lessons for all levels in your dedicated program area.

Working at camp is an opportunity to develop skills that can be used in a career outside of camp. You will enhance your leadership, collaboration, problem-solving, and communication skills. Camp Danbee has a large leadership team to learn from, from multiple college Head Coaches to experienced professionals across the education, outdoor recreation, and sports industries. 

We will work with your college/university to earn paid internship credits.

The Perks:

  • Salary starts at $2300 for a Freshman in college and increases from there

  • Travel allowance in addition to salary

  • Room, board, and staff t-shirts

  • Internship credit*

  • Experience The Berkshires, meet people from all over the US and the world, and have the summer of a lifetime!

*Some educational institutions require prior approval before the start of an internship. It is the responsibility of the student to check with their institution to be sure they meet any requirements before they accept a position.
