Love kids, nature, and ZooCamp? We need your help! Join our ZooCamp Teen Assistant program and spend two weeks playing with kids, helping to lead activities, making crafts, dressing up in costumes and of course, having fun, all while earning community service hours. Teen Assistants are truly an integral part of the camp experience! Teen Assistants should be energetic and enjoy spending time with children. This program is designed for teens in grades 9-12. TAs must commit to working two weeks during the summer, Monday through Friday, from 8:30am – 4:30pm, and may be invited back for additional weeks as the schedule allows. You will be assigned to a ZooCamp class, and assist your teacher with tours, games, crafts and general camp merriment!
