Summer Camp Staff

Join the Camp Tuscarora Team!

Form lifelong friendships, develop and share valuable skills, make a difference in the lives of others, spend a summer in the great outdoors, and have loads of fun! Being a part of a summer camp staff provides a unique and exciting work experience. 

Earn a weekly salary and be part of the camp community (room and board included too!) Summer employment runs from June 28 to August 12, 2026.

National camp standards require that all paid staff members be at least 15 years of age. Camp staff members must be, or become, registered members of Scouting America. Salaries are based on position responsibility with consideration given to the individual’s qualifications and experience; training opportunities for required certifications are provided for designated positions. 

Tuscarora also offers an enhanced Counselor in Training (CIT) program designed for Scouts ages 14 and older. This program helps prepare Scouts that may be interested in serving on staff in the future with experience, service, excitement, and leadership training without having to give a full-summer commitment.
