Camp Weequahic | Summer Internship – Camp Operations & Leadership
Co-ed Residential Summer Camp | Northeast Pennsylvania
Camp Weequahic is a 100-acre residential summer camp home to 450 campers and a global team of 200+ staff. We’re looking for dedicated, adaptable, and communicative individuals to join us in a paid internship that blends camp operations, security, and hands-on leadership.
This is a dynamic role where your work genuinely makes a difference — helping us create an incredible summer for every person on camp.
What You’ll Gain Experience In:
- Emergency protocols & health and safety procedures
- Code of conduct enforcement & crowd management
- Daily administrative operations
- Foot patrol & campus-wide security
- Leadership, problem solving & independent thinking
- Identifying and improving operational processes
Two Pathways, One Great Summer
Both tracks are open to Criminal Justice majors and offer college credit — the difference is in how you experience camp.
🔒 Operations & Security Track A focused, security-driven internship supporting the safe and efficient running of camp. You’ll manage protocols, conduct foot patrols, enforce code of conduct, and play a key role in keeping our community of 450 campers safe. A serious resume-builder with real, transferable skills.
🏕️ Counsellor-Hybrid Track Want the full camp experience alongside your internship? This track places you at the heart of camp life. Alongside your security and operations responsibilities – covering patrols, protocols, and staff days off or evenings – you’ll also take on a counsellor role in an activity area of your choice. Whether that’s athletics, lifeguarding, outdoor adventure, or trapeze, you’ll be fully embedded in the camp community while still completing a meaningful Criminal Justice internship. The best of both worlds.
No experience? No problem. We’ll train you from the ground up and shape the internship around your learning goals.
All interns receive:
- 💰 A paid salary
- 🏠 Housing & meals fully covered
- ✅ All on-camp expenses included
- 📄 College credit eligibility
- 🌍 The chance to work alongside 200+ people your age from around the world
Every past intern has walked away with a summer that makes a serious impact on their resume and becomes a major talking point in job interviews.
