Hmm... What's your role?

Staff Time Off

Typically Staff work Sunday night to Friday evening while girls are on the camp grounds. Staff get 2 hours each day while girls are at camp for time off. Weekend time off usually starts Friday night until Sunday afternoon with a extended weekend in June and July. There is at least 1 weekend this 2018 summer that staff will have to work at Saturday but will have their break worked out with the director staff.

Staff Qualities

We are looking for staff who are outgoing, flexible, take initiative, love being outdoors, and demonstrate leadership. Staff must be able to effectively work with girls parents, volunteers, staff and diverse communities. Staff must be able to work independently and exercise good judgment. Above all else we are looking for staff who are dedicated to ensuring all campers have an amazing camp experience with Girl Scouts Spirit of Nebraska.
