Our Staff

Staff at Camp Jaycee are carefully hand-selected for their maturity, personality and acceptance.  They range from 18-30 years of age and from all over the world.  Our staff are young adults who are looking to make a difference through their experiences.  A third-party agency works with Camp Jaycee to find qualified applicants, they are then interviewed by camp staff.  If the individual has qualities that align with Camp Jaycee’s goals and a personality that would help Camp flourish, they are invited to spend their summer with us.

Prior to arrival, our staff are screened via background checks from their home country and both NJ and PA.  Our staff complete an intensive 7-day training before working with our campers.  Staff are also trained and well-rehearsed in our emergency procedures.  

Our counselors are the heartbeat of Camp Jaycee.  They are the center of the fun and the biggest fans for our campers.  Often, our staff will return for many summers to share the experience over and over again with our campers.
