Camp Counselors

Darke Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) is seeking responsible, energetic high school and college students to serve as counselors for the 2nd Annual Conservation Day Camp at Chenoweth Trails on June 9th and 10th. These counselors will serve as guides for the groups of elementary students or as helpers for one of the activity stations. The goal of this camp is to provide students the opportunity to get outside and learn about how their daily actions affect wildlife, water, soil and the people around them.
 
Serving as a camp counselor is a way to develop leadership, responsibility and teamwork skills. It is also a great way to build a leadership portfolio for future goals such as 4-H Camp Counselor, Junior Fair Board member and applications for college, scholarships and jobs.
