If I'm Not Available to Work the Whole Summer, Can I Still Apply for a Job?
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.
If I Work at Aloha Beach Camp, Where Will I Live?
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.
How Will I Get to Work?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.
