  • Making a meaningful impact: Help kids build strong connections, grow their confidence, and develop strength they never knew they had — all while learning alongside them.
  • Gain leadership & teaching experience: Develop skills in facilitation, mentorship, and experiential education, and build real-world experience for careers in teaching, social work, youth development, or any field where creativity and leadership matter.
  • Build practical skills: Learn about nature in ways that will change how you interact with the world.

Lead Instructor/Overnight Camp Assistant Manager

Summer Camp Backcountry Instructor

The Pine Project is seeking Instructors to join our Red Wolf Overnight Wilderness Camp team. Unlike many overnight camps, Red Wolf Overnight Wilderness Camp takes place in a backcountry setting, with campers and staff living in tents, cooking over open fires, and living in harmony with the land. This is an exciting opportunity for individuals with outdoor education experience, particularly backcountry and adventure-programming experience. Working under the supervision of the Camp Manager, Red Wolf Camp Instructors are responsible for a variety of different areas of camp life including running games and activities in a backcountry setting, as well as preparing meals and supporting campers in learning how to live off the land.

Please send your application to work@pineproject.org Applications will be assessed on a rolling basis. Please apply as soon as possible!
