Camp Overview

Greenwood Trails is a true camp community. We celebrate the uniqueness that each individual brings to camp, while also recognizing the common ground we all share. The dedicated staff at Greenwood Trails fosters a caring atmosphere where campers feel comfortable being themselves, and where genuine friendships are nurtured. Campers are encouraged to treat each other with respect, support one another, and live with integrity. This foundation of character creates a warm, positive community where everyone feels welcome. We are based in Connecticut 2.5 hours from New York City.

Staff Qualities

We are looking for people who want to have a fun and exciting summer experience. Come and make a difference to some kids lives at Greenwood Trails. Don't be afraid to get messy and it helps if you don't mind singing to Taylor Swift at the top of your voice after meals.

We only hire specialists. Staff live with the campers and have elements of general roles but must specialize in an activity area due to elective based program. We offer full Lifeguard and Ropes certification at camp.
