High Adventure Instructors
Instructors will spend 100% of their time with campers and are responsible for running
all activities. Being devoted to working the full summer with little amounts of time off needs
to be understood with each prospective staff member. Personal time is given second importance to
the campers safety and fun.
While at Anderson camps, counselors and campers sleep in cabins or tents on the camp property,
when on trips, smaller tents are provided for everyone.
Instructors must be willing to devote all their time and energy to campers and must realize there will
be a limited time for personal interests. Each session, counselors will write a report to parents
concerning each specific camper as well as facilitate campers writing home during the session.
A dedication to working with young adults is essential. Along with the desire to work with youth,
it is imperative to have ample wisdom and knowledge of kayaking,
rock climbing, rafting and other outdoor craft skills. While it is understood that not everybody will be able
to excell and lead in each of these activities, prior experience is important in hiring the applicant.
Safety is another key aspect to every applicants resume. References to a quality safety record and responsible
experience, especially working in an enviornment with children, is another important issue in the application
process.
