Camp Tawonga is a co-ed residential children’s summer camp located outside Yosemite National Park. The campers range in age from 7-17 and participate in 1-week, 2-week, or 3-week programs throughout the summer. The Camp Tawonga Staff is a family of 160 dedicated individuals, working together to create a vital Jewish community where children thrive. This outstanding team includes people with both Jewish and non-Jewish backgrounds.
Camp Tawonga’s mission is to foster a positive self-image for campers, create a cooperative community, teach children to live in partnership with nature and offer children a positive experience of spirituality. The work at Camp is demanding, with long hours, high intensity, and little privacy. The rewards are great: the joy of helping children grow, the beauty of the mountains and river, and the camaraderie of working with other enthusiastic and caring staff.
This position requires that you be at least 21 years old with current Lifeguard and Wilderness First Responder or WEMT certification (if you are not already certified, Tawonga can reimburse the tuition costs of getting the required certifications). Experience with children and prior backpacking experience is essential; natural history, environmental education, challenge course facilitation, and Judaic knowledge are helpful. The season runs from 5/26/2022 to 8/10/2022.
