The
success of our camp is due to
the vital role played by our staff,
which is why we go to great lengths
to find the most dedicated and
experienced counselors.
A
more experienced staff ensures
a warmer, nurturing environment
for our campers,
which is essential to a positive
camp experience.
Camp
activities
are led by specialists in their
field.
Our athletic personnel are fun,
safety oriented coaches, teachers,
and college level players who,
through their expert instructional
skills, make the program age and
developmentally appropriate. Our
"hands-on" approach
provides an opportunity for Chateaugay
staff to attain an awareness that
allows them to recognize each
child's needs.

Our team knows when a child is in need of encouragement,
reassurance, or the extra hug that you would give
if you were there.
Camp Chateaugay has a very high return rate of staff
year after year. A larger alumni
staff base gives our campers a greater sense of
family, which they look forward to every summer.
Each applicant must complete first year of college
or university, and have experience working with
children, in order to be qualified for a position
at our camp. We interview each prospective employee,
and carry out reference and background checks.

Unit Leaders
Unit
leaders are senior staff members who, quite often,
are also teachers and parents. Their role is to
ensure the health, and social well being of every
camper. They monitor and track each camper to ensure
proper hygiene, and that our kids are having a safe,
fun filled summer. Answering directly to the Camp
Director, the senior staff meets daily with
the Director and camp owners, to review important
events and matters concerning the children. Our
unit leaders live in private quarters that are connected
to camper cabins. This keeps unit leaders involved
and available to provide our staff and campers
with additional support. |
Staff Development
Staff training and development is one of our chief priorities at Camp Chateaugay. Through hands-on workshops, and interactive seminars during our 8 day pre-camp, we provide our people with modern and progressive child care concepts. The training seminars include topics on safety, health, and appropriate camper interaction, to help prepare our staff for the world of summer camp. We give our qualified, experienced team the tools to make a Chateaugay camp experience a safe, fun-filled and happy environment for kids. Camp Chateaugay has a very high return rate of staff year after year. |
