Our Camp Counselors

We’re looking for enthusiastic, responsible, and community-minded teens who want to help create an unforgettable summer for our campers. Many of our counselors are alumni of our Jewish Learning Center (JLC) or have grown up in the SIJCC community, and we love seeing them take the next step as leaders and role models.

We’re fully hired for 2025 but check here to apply next year!
