Summer Camps in the USA are a big part of American culture and it's traditional for kids to spend their summers away from home on a camp doing activities and playing sports. There are thousands of summer camps spread all throughout the United States.
You get to spend the summer living and working in the USA, so by the end of it you’ll feel like a local! You can make the most of your days off at camp and check out the local area and nearby towns and cities. Then once camp is finished, you can stay in America for a further 30 days to travel!
The great thing about working on a summer camp is that whilst you’re having an amazing summer doing something fun and exciting, you’ll also be benefiting your future at the same time! Camp America is recognised by employers and academic institutions across the world, so it will be a great addition to your CV and make you a stand out applicant.
Spending 9 weeks in the USA is a great opportunity to improve your English language skills as you will be speaking English your whole time on camp. Don’t be worried by this, you don’t have to be fluent before arriving but a good level of spoken English is required.
The bonds formed between the staff on camp means you become like family! You’ll rely on each other, you’ll work hard together, you’ll laugh together, you’ll learn together and ultimately you’ll share the summer together.
Camp enables you to become a role model, a leader and a team player - perhaps without you even noticing! You couldn’t gain all of these skills in a normal summer job, so by taking part in the programme you’re not only going to have an amazing time, you’re also helping your future too!
Whether you’d rather look after the camp working in the kitchen, office, or maintenance, or looking after the kids as a general or activities specialist, there’s something for everyone!
Spend a minimum of 9 weeks living and working on a summer camp in the USA!

"Tänu Camp Americale sain ma osaks ainulaadsest kogemusest, mis ühtlasi oli parim suvi mis mul siiani olnud on. South Mountain YMCA laagris oli iga inimene väga sõbralik ja abivalmis. Seetõttu kohanesin ma võõrkeeles suhtlemisega ja uue ümbrusega kiiresti. Laagrist tagasi tulles tunnen ma end enesekindlamana ja suudan igas olukorras leida lahendust. Kogu kogemus oli üdini positiivne ning soovitan kõigil, kellel suvel midagi teha pole, seda proovida".
