Camp America Work Adventures
Are you a current university student or have you recently graduated?
If so, why not take advantage of the Camp America Work Adventures program?
This program is just like Camp America, however it allows you to work and travel in the US for up to 12 months! We’ll set you up with a 9 week paid support role at a summer camp in administration, the kitchen or maintenance; you’ll then have the remainder of the year to work and travel.
You’ll get the same summer camp experience as those on the Camp America program, you’ll eat the s’mores, sing the camp fire songs and get to do all of the awesome activities at camp, plus the added bonus of a longer visa and a 98% chance of placement!
