At Swannanoa, we strive to find the best staff possible to take care of your camper. We understand the amount of trust you are putting in us to keep your child safe. On top of hiring the best, we spend 1 week training them in behavior& conflict management, bully prevention, child development, leading activites, time management, etc. All staff members are required to be cerfified in 1st Aid & CPR also. Our training is an intense training that leaves the staff feeling confident in their role as a mentor and provider for their campers. Why should someone chose to work for us? We only hire the best staff here at Swannanoa...those who strive to go above and beyond to create the magic of camp for every child. We, as administrators, also strive to make your summer here at Swannanoa one that you will remember for years to come. In addition to an exceptional staff training and support throughout the weeks, we offer optional weekend outings that will give you a taste of Western North Carolina and offer lots of opportunities to bond with your fellow staff members. We offer 3 types of contracts depending on the duration of employment you are looking for.
