If you’re a fun, caring, hard-working, and patient person that loves children looking for the summer job of your dreams, Stony Creek - Fishers Summer Camp is the place for you!
Stony Creek Camp - Fishers is looking for summer camp assistants for the 2019 season. Our diverse program offers something fun for all our campers and our staff. We are looking for individuals (16+) that have a love for children and a love for the outdoors.
We look for positive, “can do!” attitudes, creative minds, fun-loving spirits, and dependable, trustworthy individuals. We look for flexible personalities, ready to run with what they are given, but also capable of following daily schedules. We look for those that love the outdoors because this is an ALL OUTDOOR camp. We need team players! Our camp is collaborative and ever changing, meaning we need those that can work with a team of people, share ideas in a professional and organized manor, and collaborate with other teammates and the director to give our campers the best experience possible. We need detail-oriented individuals that can maintain time management with the schedule so that things run smoothly and effectively. Detail orientation is also a must in cleaning and set-up so that the children can get to and from their daily activities. And lastly, we need those that have such a deep-rooted love for children that the campers will feel like they are with family when in our care. Creating happy, healthy, responsible children is our number one goal and we need those that can bring that value out every minute that you are with us!
