  Subject: SUMMER CAMP SEEKING WILDERNESS TRIP LEADERS!

Hello!

My name is Kat Martin and along with Mike and Kathy Jay we direct a
summer camp for girls in Northern Minnesota.  We have positions
available for Wilderness Trip Leaders and think that this is a good job
opportunity for students who are interested in Outdoor Recreation.  We
hope that you will please pass along this email and the attached fl yer
to your Outdoor Recreation Department and/or Clubs and Groups.

That said, we are including some preliminary information about the
Wilderness Trip Leader positions available (including attached job
description for the position and a flyer that can be posted or emailed)
for the summer of 2009.  We are hopeful that you might forward this
message onto your students or club members who, could in turn, contact
us directly.  It is a great chance for your students/club members to
work outside, share their love for the outdoors/outdoor activities and
have fun!!

Here goes:

Northern Minnesota Residential Summer Camp for Girls is Seeking
Wilderness Trip Leading Staff for the Summer of 2009.

Looking for experienced people who enjoy the outdoors to lead overnight
   canoe/kayak/climbing/camping trips at Camp Kamaji beginning no later
than June 1, 2009 with an end date of August 12, 2009.

We have two sessions of 160 campers each.  Every camper participates in
at least one overnight trip, lead by a Wilderness Trip Leader. We hire
about 6 Wilderness Trip Leaders a summer, and with help from the cabin
counselors, lead groups of 8-12 girls on overnight trips varying in
length from 2-10 days.

In addition to competitive salary including travel allowance, board and
room ~ what's in it for you??
(1)  Working with children makes you feel good about yourself.
(2)  Camp is a great place to find out if you would enjoy a career
working with kids.
(3)  Camp provides a setting to develop skills - including leadership,
teamwork, cooperation, motivation and organization.
(4)  You get to stay in shape and teach something you love to do.
(5)  Camp staff form deep and long-lasting friendships with other staff
members and campers.
(6)  Working in the out-of-doors, in a beautiful setting, is a great
change from school or work in the city.
(7)  Camp is FUN.

If a position as a Wilderness Trip Leader does not exactly appeal to
you, we do have other positions available to teach activities such as
canoeing/kayaking, archery, fishing, sailing, windsurfing and on our
climbing wall and low ropes course (instructors that teach in these
fields also work as cabin counselors-females only!).  Please contact me

Much appreciated if you can help out!  Thanks!


Kat, Kathy & Mike
