There are so many jobs to choose from at SpringHill. From being a counselor to a lifeguard, there’s a role for just about everybody at SpringHill.

A job at Overnight Camp requires no travel, kids spend the night, and you live on a SpringHill property all summer.

Day Camp Jobs
Day Camp is all about bringing a SpringHill experience to communities throughout the Midwest. We partner with local churches to provide the fun and excitement of SpringHill to kids pre-K – 5th grade…right in their own community.
When you work for Day Camp it’s like being on one giant road trip all summer long! Travel to different cities, serve in different neighborhoods, and meet kids from different backgrounds. Spend the summer serving the local church and providing a fun summer experience to families.
