Info

Dance instructors and nurse needed. Endless Mountains Dance Camp is a summer haven for the experienced dancer, for boys and girls ages 8 through 16.

Each summer, 50 talented men and women gather on our Pennsylvania mountaintop to create an exciting, rewarding and safe environment for children. Our staff members are creative individuals who care about children, education and the arts; they are students, educators and artists with diverse backgrounds and experience who share a common interest in nurturing, supporting and teaching young people in a non-competitive, individual choice setting.

Benefits: Staff members are employed for 8 to 11 weeks. Staff members can draw on their earned salary at any time. Room and board are provided, and it is quite possible to live at camp all summer completely expense free.

All staff members attend a complete orientation before camp begins. Staff members receive 1 day off per week and every other night off. All camp facilities are available to staff members during their time off, except horseback riding. The food is excellent for omnivores and vegetarians alike. On-campus facilities specifically for staff members include laundry, computers, e-mail, a phone, and a comfy lounge with a TV/VCR, refrigerator, pool table, and more.

Most teaching staff members are also cabin counselors. Cabin counselors live with at least one other staff member and 10-14 campers. EMDC is an activity-oriented camp; staff members spend only 2.5 hours each day with their cabin groups and 5.5 hours a day in specialty areas working with motivated campers! EMDC is a magical place. Come join us!
