For 9-12 weeks every summer, millions of kids attend thousands of summer camps across the USA. To make sure these kids have a summer they’ll never forget, Camp Directors search far and wide for fun and friendly staff who will share their camp’s values and create an inclusive environment. This includes making new friends, sharing new experiences, developing new skills and being outside! By the lake, by the pool, in the fields or in the forest – there’s adventure everywhere.
Our Camps
We’re the original summer camp organisation, placing thousands of summer camp staff at hundreds of camps across the USA since 1969. Our Camps start between 1st May and 20th June and run for 9-12 weeks.

Real Experiences
Don't just take our word for it - this is just a snapshot of the amazing summers our participants have had, and the reasons they keep going back year after year.
A Theatre Specialist is the most creative, diverse and imaginative job you can have at camp. I was able to practice my own skills as well as developing children's confidence to take over the theatre stage.
The application process is so easy and Camp America are there to guide you through it every step of the way. The team are all so helpful.
I worked with children on the autistic spectrum at camp the summer of 2015 and 9 years later I'm still saying it was the best summer of my life!
You join this bubble of people who are extremely caring and supportive, they help you grow as a person and unlock new confidence. I would recommend Camp America to anyone!
Spending four summers working at an under-served summer camp has made me grateful in many ways and taught me the importance of creating opportunities for all children.
Lifeguard training taught me so much and really pushed me out of my comfort zone. The difference between when I started camp and left camp was unimaginable and I am so grateful for the experience.
