Dates: June / August
Tired
of the same old boring job during the summer? Looking
for a program to challenge you and lift you out of your
comfort zone? The CCUSA Camp Counselor Russia program
may be just what you need.
For thirteen years, we have offered this adventurous,
challenging program to those who want to work as a counselor
in a Russian summer youth camp for four to eight weeks
from June through August.
Every
summer thousands of children head off for camps across
Russia, from the shores of Lake Baikal to the beaches
of the Black Sea. Each camp has its own philosophy,
but all provide children a place to relax while having
fun in an outdoor setting. In many ways, these camps
resemble those in the United States and Canada. They
are usually located in rural settings, miles away from
the nearest town.
Typically,
a camp will have a large dining hall, crafts and sports
buildings and dormitories. Children usually come for sessions
lasting 10 to 28 days. Many camp activities take place
in the beautiful Russian countryside, often by a lake
or river, which provides a glorious setting for swimming,
boating and canoeing. Other activities may include theater,
land sports, arts, crafts, dance, performing arts and
teaching.
We offer two
positions in our Russia Program: Camp Counselor or English/American
Culture Instructor.
You
receive free room and board throughout the program.
These are considered volunteer positions because you
are paid the same as your fellow Russian counselors,
which may only work out to be a very small stipend.
You may indicate at your interview if you would prefer
one position over the other.
