Staff Info

We begin hiring in October, seeking those who want to have the summer of their lives.

Bring your skills to the JRC table; we’re looking for people who enjoy working with kids, being in the outdoors, and who have developed the skills required for teaching our activities.

JRC Staff - Summer 2026

Join us at JRC and become part of the family.  We’re seeking the zany, the quirky, the bold, and the brilliant to join us for a fantastic summer.  If you’re looking to change the world, make a difference, and be part of something bigger than yourself, we have an opportunity for you to do just that.  

Summer camp is a world of fun, but the job isn’t for everyone.  It requires an endless supply of patience, the ability to be rejuvenated by the campers around you, and a limitless supply of energy. 

We are extremely rustic: Are you comfortable being dirty?  Do you enjoy sleeping outside? Can you live without Wifi? How do you feel about outhouses? These are realities of JRC.  

You will change lives.  You will be there when a child sees the Milky Way for the first time.  You will be there when a child pushes their own boundaries and accomplishes something remarkable.  You will be the shoulder they cry on when they’re homesick and the one who helps them smile through the tears.   They will never forget you, and you will never forget them.

Ready To Apply? 

Fantastic!

JRC searches the globe for amazing people to make each summer the best ever.

We are excited to get to know you.
