Summer Opportunities 2008

The Rowdy Ridge Gang Camp is a summer camp program for adult women and their children, ages 1 to 17. The 2008 camp season will run from Friday, June 27th through Friday, July 25th 2008. We are located in the San Gabriel Mountains (90 minutes north of Los Angeles). Women are graduates from substance abuse treatment programs and survivors of domestic violence who continue to participate, along with their children, in aftercare programs and support groups. This year, The Rowdy Ridge Gang Camp will serve approximately 500 campers over a seven-week period consisting of six camp sessions.

The goal of the camp is to provide a fun-filled, safe, memorable, and educational experience to these families. To achieve this we require a very caring and energetic staff dedicated to enriching the lives of these families. Working in a summer camp setting requires staff members who are team-players, creative, friendly, cooperative, hardworking, flexible, and responsible.

 


 

Salaried staff members are provided with room and board in addition to salary ($300/week). Program areas include: Arts & Crafts, Preschool, Performing Arts, Nature Study, Sports & Rec., and Swimming (Lifeguard). We accept applications for the 2008 season starting Monday, February 25, 2008.
