Foothills Day Camp Staff

   The staff is made up of a diverse group of people ages 15+. Like the campers, Foothills Day Camp staff get to enjoy a free and fun week, while working hard to make the camp experience an unforgettable one for all of the campers. 
   During the day, the staff is responsible for a small group of children based on age. Beginning at 8:30 a.m., the staff energetically greets the children as they arrive by bus at Camp Lee. Throughout the day, the staff lead the children in program, singing, arts and crafts, and a variety of camp activities including swimming, canoeing, rocksliding, ziplining and volleyball. Once all of the children have gone home, the staff has time to relax, debrief the day, and have fun participating in activities specifically tailored to them. Being on staff is a rewarding and fulfilling experience!
