We’d love to have you as a part of our team! As a counselor, you will have the opportunity to make an impact on so many lives,
helping our campers become strong, sound, independent individuals. At camp, we believe in The IA/FA Way.

Enjoy your summer in one of the most beautiful, restful spots in the country. With mountains, rivers, and acres of field, you will be given the opportunity to be enriched and challenged.
