Sage Mountain Botanical Sanctuary
Job Announcement: Summer Camp Education Staff
Sage Mountain Botanical Sanctuary is interviewing immediately for a seasonal contract position for Summer Camp Education Staff starting June 16. This position supports the Sage Mountain Summer Camp in Nature program, serving twenty youth in grades 3 through 8.
Summer Camp in Nature is offered for six weeks June 23 through August 1, meeting Monday through Friday, 9:00 am – 3:00 pm, hosted at our 600-acre nature reserve located in Orange, Vermont. An additional week of employment June 16 will provide training and orientation.
Our Summer Camp in Nature curriculum intimately follows the rhythms of nature, wildlife, and local flora. Youth will explore this ancient rhythm by splashing in mountain streams, helping to grow delicious and healthy foods in the garden meadow, and experiencing quality time outdoors through a variety of different activities. In the process, they will learn not only about the natural communities that surround them, but also about themselves, their peers, and the world at large.
Our activities are guided by youth-led learning and nature immersion while integrating STEAM objectives, creative arts, and social-emotional learning. Our program provides students with a foundation of physical and mental wellness through land-based, hands-on, outdoor learning and play. Our outdoor educators support youth with years of nature education experience and trauma-informed training.
Summer Camp in Nature offers a sliding scale tuition and scholarships to make this program accessible for all families. We facilitate transportation within a radius of homes in Orange and Washington Counties for those in need. Our program follows state health and safety guidance.
The Summer Education Staff position is a supportive role in our program, working closely with our Director of Youth Education, our Youth Program Facilitator, and all other staff.
In this role, you will be one of the supportive facilitators within Sage Mountainʼs transformative summer camp education programs. This role will engage with youth directly and will be responsible for adhering to all safety protocols while providing mentorship and support for campers in Sage Mountainʼs summer nature education programs. Your work will involve implementation of our nature-based curriculum, literacy in social-emotional learning objectives, direct supervision and engagement with youth, and training to support these responsibilities.
