Ready to take your leadership to the next level and become a GLC Intern?? We hope you say YES!

We have an amazing opportunity for GLC graduates (and other interested girls and women!) to continue their involvement in the magic of camp as interns. The role is a lot of work and a lot of fun! Application link is below. Take time to thoughtfully respond to the questions, we want to ensure that you fully understand the role and are 100% committed to showing up, chipping in, and continuing to expand your leadership skills at camp and beyond!

GLC Intern

Internships are primarily for students entering 11-12th in Fall of 2024 or college-aged students, if you are outside of that age group but want to volunteer at camp, please be in touch with us at hello@genchg.org to discuss before applying.

Interns will be required to be on campus morning of July 8th for training, through to end of day clean up on July 13th.

Interns are required to cover their room and board which totals $600, and will receive group leadership training, individual mentoring, and a recommendation letter if requested.

Intern Expectations

INTERN TASKS:
- Guide group to activities around campus and ensure they arrive and depart on time to stick to the schedule
- Help Team Leader to organize and prepare campers for activities.
- Engage with campers during down-times between workshops and activities - leading games, encouraging letter writing, art projects, Ripple Journal reflection etc.
- Work with Team Leader and other Interns to take turns waking the girls up in the morning, ensuring they are all out of the dorm and off to their first activity on time.
- Be aware of camper interactions and actively step in to both encourage positive behaviors, conversations and actions, and catch early signs of the negatives in order to address issues immediately.
- Keep Team Leader and Intern Coordinator aware of any issues or concerns that may lead to problems within the group. Actively stay engaged with each camper in order to know when something is off, and address it early on with the guidance of your Team Leader, a Lead Facilitator and/or the Intern Coordinator.
- Participate in activities and conversations in a way that encourages the campers to engage, without taking over activities, dominating conversations or excluding the campers roles.

GENERAL EXPECTATIONS FOR THIS ROLE:
- Present yourself in a way that models the GenChg values (inclusivity, challenge-by-choice participation, positive encouragement)
- Work as a team with your Team Leader and other Interns to form a cohesive unit that supports the experience of the campers and the overall message of GLC
- Keep in open communication with the Intern Facilitator so she can help with any questions or concerns, and celebrate your wins during the week!
