Camp Counselor

Camp Onomia is looking for energetic individuals to join our community as a Camp Counselor for the summer season. Since 1949, Camp Onomia has been a place set apart of Christian nurture, where all people are encouraged to encounter Christ through Creation and Community. During the summer Camp Onomia runs week long overnight camp, sends staff to churches to run day camps (Vacation Bible School), and hosts family camps and other group retreats on site.

This position will work primarily with youth and families through the summer season as you gain valuable life skills such as leadership, confidence, and interpersonal skills! With our anticipated summer schedule, it is estimated that a camp counselor will spend around 50% of their time as a traditional overnight camp counselor, 30% of their time as a day camp counselor, and the remaining 20% hosting rentals groups and doing work projects at camp. This breakdown may change based on the actual summer schedule and when considering talents and preferences. You’ll be a positive role model and mentor for campers as you guide them through various scheduled camp activities, and along the way you might discover things about yourself and grow along the way too! Think that this sounds like something you’d like to be a part of? We hope that you will prayerfully consider serving at Camp Onomia.
