Junior Counselor Program
Become a Counselor in Training for a dynamic, fun, and educational summer!
The St. James Junior Counselor Program gives older campers the opportunity to build leadership skills and gain real-world experience while assisting during camp. Junior Counselors help staff and support younger campers throughout daily activities, shadow counselors to learn about teamwork and responsibility, and take part in fun group challenges like scavenger hunts and special events. Those interested can also assist with our Operations Team over the summer to learn how large-scale camps and programs are organized. Junior Counselors will be assigned to a different camp and activity each day.
