State YMCA Camp Of Maine

Founded in 1915 as the overnight camping program of the State YMCA of Maine, Jeff Smith had a vision for a place where boys could come and learn how to be leaders and work with their hands. Having an experience away from the growing cities was used to teach the participants how to cut hay, work with wood, swim and boat, and live in social settings.

Our camp staff team is an intentionally selected and expertly trained group of individuals, committed to creating the best summer experiences imaginable for our campers. We come from all walks of life and from around the globe to create a community that becomes family. Through group living, learning and playing, we are facilitators of lifelong friendships and memories.

Everyone is required to complete an online application. We review all submissions and evaluate each candidate closely for both strong activity and interpersonal skills. This email address will be used to contact you, and will grant you access to your employee portal, should you be hired. When you submit your application, your references will automatically be sent an online form that is linked to your application.

We are seeking caring and enthusiastic role models, who want to work with children ages 7-16, in a beautiful, rustic outdoor setting. Our staff members embody our four core values, (honesty, respect, responsibility, and caring) and build a community upon these. Returning international staff members should complete the YCamp application before contacting your host organization.

While working at YCamp, you become immersed in camp life: 100+ years of history and traditions, building unique, strong friendships with people from around the world, and making memories that will last a lifetime. YMCA Camp of Maine is a traditional, rustic camp, on a beautiful lake; an idyllic location to spend your summer.
