TURN THIS SUMMER INTO YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE EMBRACE EXPLORATION
If you love the outdoors and a new adventure, spend it at beautiful Camp Welaka in sunny Jupiter, Florida, where we will host girls for Adventure-themed summer camp sessions.

As a Leader, you will empower girls to plan and lead camp activities and facilitate activities for campers in your group.
All Camp Leaders and Assistant Leaders are required to live on property in an on-site cabin during resident camp and Adventure camp sessions.

Who are we seeking? An energetic individual with critical thinking skills who can adapt as needed. Someone who can communicate clearly verbally and in writing with children, parents, volunteers, peers, supervisors, and subordinates.
