Positions
Female Cabin/Activity Counselor
As a Wico camp counselor, you have a dual role: you live in a cabin with 6-14 campers and teach/coach in your activity area of expertise (see below for Activity Areas at Wico). The responsibilities of a counselor can be compared to the job of a “working” parent. 90% of our staff have this role. Each staff member has two distinct supervisors, the Head Counselor, who oversees all aspects of a particular age group, and the Activity Head, who oversees the activity area in which a staff member is teaching.
Bunk Life
Working with 1 to 3 co-counselors, you are responsible for the supervision of a bunk of girls. Each bunk forms its own little community. Living and playing under one roof creates strong bonds and friendships!
Activity Day
You are assigned to teach a specific activity based on your experience. Throughout the day, you teach and share your knowledge with campers. Your Activity Head is responsible for curriculum, program development, and your on-going training.
