Job Description
Make a difference. Be a role model. Have fun!
Do you love working with kids and bringing joy to their day? JCC Greater Boston is looking for enthusiastic, responsible CampCounselors for our School Break Camps (December, February, Passover, and April school breaks).
School Break CampCounselors guide groups of campers (K-5th grade) through a fun, supportive day filled with sports, arts & crafts, swimming, games, and special events. Counselors are role models who create a warm, inclusive environment where campers can build confidence, make friends, and have a blast during their time off from school.
What you will do each day:
As a School Break Counselor, you'll start your day greeting campers with energy and warmth, helping them feel excited for what's ahead. You'll guide your group through a variety of activities - one hour you might be cheering them on in a game of capture the flag, the next you're diving into an arts & crafts project or encouraging hesitant swimmers in the pool. Lunch brings laughter, songs, and silly moments, and you'll be right there helping campers feel included and connected. Throughout the day, you'll be a role model - building relationships, keeping campers safe, and making sure every child feels supported. By the end of the day, you'll leave camp tired but smiling, knowing you've helped kids create joyful memories.
Why work with us?
At our camps, the best part of the day is simple: the campers. Our staff say their favorite moments are playing games, cheering campers on at swim, creating art together, and bonding over shared interests. Staff describe camp as fun, dynamic, and inclusive. Here, you'll gain leadership skills, make lasting friendships, and create unforgettable experiences - for campers and yourself.
