CAMP IS HIRING
An opportunity to innovate, grow, and to welcome new voices and ideas.
Working at Stomping Ground isn’t just a job. It’s a mind-bending, heart-expanding, life-altering experience. We’re not just showing up to hang out with kids, play gaga, or organize talent shows. We’re on the frontlines of a quiet revolution. The revolution to trust kids at an unprecedented level. To walk towards conflict and engage in messy, vulnerable dialogue. To question and create. To shape, break, and reinvent the very norms that surround us, trying to edge ever closer to a more perfect world.
Learn how we got here and where we’re going.
Each summer, we get to join hands with a diverse, passionate group of humans who are all asking “What does a more perfect world look like?” - and more importantly, “How do we get there?” If you want to be part of this next chapter of the adventure with us, welcome to the revolution. Let’s do this.
We’re looking for someone who will be a cornerstone of our community- someone ready to build trust-based, authentic relationships with campers and staff. This role is all about fostering growth through play, creating space for connection through conflict, and nurturing a camp environment where everyone is encouraged to be their best, most curious selves.
Transparency, Accessibility, Inclusion.
We’re taking a community-centered approach to hiring the next camp director, involving a diverse group of campers, staff, and parents on our hiring committee. We want to ensure that every voice is heard and that the decision we make is one that benefits our entire community.
