What is Camp America?

We're a cultural exchange programme giving you the chance to spend your summer on a USA summer camp.

Camp America is a cultural exchange programme that gives you the chance to spend your summer living and working on a summer camp in the USA. We'll support you from start to finish to make sure you have the experience of a lifetime!

The Company

Established in 1969, we've been recruiting international summer camp staff for a long time. Find out more about our story and where it all began.

Why Choose Camp America

We are Camp America! Other companies may say they're 'Camp America', but we're the originals. Don't accept imitations, go with the brand you can you trust!

Child Protection

We put child protection and safeguarding at the heart of everything we do. It's hugely important for us to recruit the right kind of people, so that children and vulnerable adults are protected on our programme.

Camp America is an opportunity like no other!

It's your chance to do something totally different with your summer and spend it in the USA with people from all over the world in a truly unique setting. There's nowhere quite like camp!

You're in good hands...

We've been sending people to work on summer camps in America since 1969, so we're a company you can trust. Our staff have done the programme themselves, so we really understand what's involved in getting someone from their home country to a suitable summer camp placement in the USA. We also know how daunting it can be to sort out an experience like this, so over the years we've worked really hard to make the process as easy as possible for you. This means that you can sit back and relax in the knowledge that as far as working on a summer camp is concerned - we've got you covered!

The fun of camp with the chance to travel

The Camp America programme is the best way to experience the real America. After all, you can't get more American than summer camp! It's become a tradition for American kids to spend their summers at camp and it's now very much part of their culture. By working on a camp you not only get to experience it first-hand, but more importantly you get to become part of it! After your camp placement ends you also have the added bonus of being able to travel for up to 30 days around the USA. This gives you the perfect amount of time to explore the US and enjoy all the fun, excitement and adventure of travelling, whilst being in a country that's already become to feel like home.

Alumni

A Cultural Exchange to remember!

I wanted to travel to America to learn about culture and to improve my English. I quickly found my place at camp and realized that I was in the middle of a life changing experience. I never thought that I would see and try so many things in one summer, meet so many great staff members and campers that turned into great friendships. I only planned to go to camp for one summer, but I ended up working there for five years!
