Cabin Leader

Cabin Leaders are trained to provide safe, fun, and Gospel-centered experiences for our campers. Each week they are assigned a cabin of 10-13 kids who attend Trout for a one-week summer camp. If you love working with kids, want to grow in your skills and leadership as a person, and be a part of an encouraging camp community. Then a summer as a Cabin Leader
is the role for you.
 

A Cabin Leader is responsible for day and night supervision in a cabin of 8-11 campers. This is the most physically and emotionally demanding job at camp, but also one of the most rewarding. Cabin leading requires someone that can find enjoyment through spending an extensive amount of time with kids and is committed to their growth. A cabin leader must be graduated from high school or GED

This is an entry-level, summer-only role. No prior experience or training is required,
but an initiative to learn and grow is required to be successful.
