Here are some of the more frequently asked questions about working at Aloha Beach Camp. Feel free to contact us if you have further questions.
Hiring preference is given to applicants who can work full-time the whole summer. But even if you cannot work the entire time, don't let this stop you from applying because we still may be able to work with you.
Most of our staff lives within 30 minutes of camp. Since we are a day camp, not a sleepaway camp, we do not provide housing for our staff. If you live out of town, you are still welcome to apply, but if you are hired for employment, you must secure housing on your own.
Our staff is required to ride camp buses to and from work each day. A portion of your salary would include managing camper safety and supervision on the camp vehicles.
Our business office is located near Los Angeles, CA. Camp activities take place at various beaches and aquatic venues in Los Angeles and Malibu. Approximate driving times from local universities are: UCSB 80 minutes; USC 30 minutes; CSUN, UCLA, and Pepperdine; Cal Lutheran 20 minutes.
The general gross salary range for working full-time for all 10 weeks of camp is roughly between $5,000-$6,000. Your specific salary would depend on previous experience, school year(s) completed, position(s) held, and other factors.
The above salary range includes the positions described below. However, please keep in mind that your job duties may include additional responsibilities beyond those listed here, including but not limited to driving and/or riding on a camp bus or van. In general, however, these are the positions available for employment:
- Camp Counselors, where you'd have your own group of kids to supervise and play with each day. You would also be trained and certified as a lifeguard which is a fundamental condition of employment to work at Aloha Beach Camp.
- Beach Specialists, where you'd lead sand-based activities like arts & crafts and sports and games.
- Surfing Specialists, where you'd specialize in teaching surfing to our campers.
- Office support, which makes between $12 per hour or more depending on experience.
