Birch Hill has been fortunate to employ caring, talented and upbeat staff members from all over the United States, Europe and Australia! All counselors are hired as activity specialists and are cabin counselors. Two counselors live together in a cabin and care for 8-10 campers of the same age. The cabins are cottage like dwellings with bathrooms. Counselors must be 18 years old and have previous experience in one or more teaching areas listed in the activity list below. Lifeguards certifications are necessary for waterfront positions, (lifeguard courses are available the weeks before camp begins).
All staff attend a pre-camp orientation week to get to know each other and prepare for our season! The positive energy and uplifting morale make the Camp Birch Hill experience unforgettable. Attitude is everything!

Dates of employment: June 14th to August 16th (9 week commitment)
Pre Camp Orientation June 14th to June 21st (campers arrive June 22nd)
