This isn't just a summer job. It's a chance to trade your regular routine for trails, teamwork, laughter, and the kind of work that actually matters. At the Whatcom Family YMCA, our camp staff are more than employees: they are role models, mentors, and memory-makers who turn ordinary summer days into experiences kids carry with them for life.
We're looking for people who love working with kids, thrive in the outdoors, and want to spend their summer doing something with real purpose. Whether you're drawn to outdoor adventure, early childhood education, aquatics, or general camp programming, there's a role here for you.
