Camp Overview

We're looking for strong staff members who can make an extraordinary impact in the lives of children. Quinipet offers both a day and an overnight camp, and a sailing program for boys and girls ages 5-17. Most staff members live in cabins with campers and also teach a program activity, ranging from sports to arts, sailing, and waterfront. Quinipet staff have a day and an evening off weekly, perfect for enjoying our spectacular beachfront location on Shelter Island, NY or the bright city lights of Manhattan! We provide laundry facilities, a staff retreat with wifi and fridge, and van shuttles around the island. Quinipet is accredited by the American Camp Association and owned by the NY Conference of The United Methodist Church.
