Program Interpreter

Are you ready for a Summer that you'll remember for the rest of your life? You'll experience Swamp Base runs a 5-day, 4-night, 61.6-mile-long paddling trail in the Atchafalaya River Basin. We offer this trek to youth organizations from across the country. We are looking for trek guides and program staff to facilitate these treks. As a staff member you will enjoy the most fun job you've ever had, celebrate Louisiana's rich culture, share your passion for the outdoors, makes friendships that last a lifetime, and grow in your own personal way.

While on shift, all meals are provided. Things like crawfish etouffee, gumbo, and boudin are served. For staff from out-of-town, housing in Lafayette, LA is also provided during your days off. Our season begins with staff training in late May and runs to late July.

Program Interpreters are responsible for providing meals, running programs, and keeping facilities in order. We have a 24-acre island in the middle of a lake with access to electricity, a hiking trail, and fantastic sunsets. (Ages 18+)
