Summer Jobs Program
The Point Roberts Park and Recreation District maintains a summer jobs program to provide the opportunity to work within the Park District as volunteers or paid counselors at our kids summer camp. This program helps promote responsible job skills and collaborative team work.
Volunteer Counselors
Our Kids camp is restricted to ages 6 through 12; however, we allow kids age 13-15 to act as volunteer (non-paid) assistant camp counselors. This allows these kids to participate in kids camp activities but they are given the responsibility of helping the camp counselors run programs during our camp sessions. Kids who volunteer are required to be there for every camp session and they must follow any instructions by camp counselors as they learn to become good leaders in the future. These positions are very limited and subject to permission of the lead camp counselor after they have discussed what is expected from the volunteer counselor during the camp.
If you are interested in volunteering as an assistant camp counselor please fill out and email the 2025 Junior Counselor Form to: prparkdistrict@gmail.com on or before June 15, 2025.
Camp Counselors
Our camp counselors are age 16 and older, and are responsible for running the day-to-day camp activities. This is an excellent opportunity to work in a temporary summer job and develop leadership skills for the future. We try to recruit youth who have been through summer camp previously; however, we are open to new youth and adults joining this program. This is a paid position with a limited number of openings and must be applied for. Job Applications are located here: Job Application If you wish to attach a resume, please do so.
