PREPARING FOR YOUR PROFESSIONAL FUTURE
INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES AT YMCA CAMP TOCKWOGH

Need an internship for college or even course credit?
More and more colleges and professional jobs necessitate an internship for graduation requirements. Colleges will often refer to them as practical experience or a practicum. We can easily offer both in a wide range of opportunities for you while you are here during our summer. Every year we have students complete service hours, internships, and even twelve credit practicum.

Assessing your needs
If your college or department requires practical experience or even course credit in a professional work environment we are experienced at molding our program to fit your college, university or personal needs. Some college programs require that you have an immersion experience in a low-responsibility position, such as a cabin counselor; showing your ability to adapt to new environments and teaching a scheduled curriculum.

We can also accommodate you if you need to have an administrative role with a large grasp on program development, staff supervision, risk management and decision making processes. We have nearly 30 administrative staff on camp that are responsible for everything from the waterfront and land activity programs to our villages and cabin areas. You can supervise anywhere from 6 to 85 staff members and nearly 380 campers. Again, we can accommodate most specific requirements that you need.

When, Where and How?
Spring, Summer, Fall; we are open almost all year round and therefore always need staff. During our conference seasons in spring, summer and fall (matching your semesters) we need staff to run adventure programs such as kayaking, hiking and sailing as well as hosting our conference and rental groups on site. Along with the conference program we also hire 100 cabin counselors and the 30 administrative staff for our summer resident camp as mentioned above.

Applying is easy. Visit www.tockwogh.org and navigate to the jobs section. There you will find all the job descriptions, salaries, and instructions for applying. We send the specific documents and forms, and will speak with your advisor or professor when needed. We work hard to make this a building experience for you!
