SUMMER CAMP JOBS:
Camp Tall Timbers has a 4 -1 ratio of campers to staff.
Each summer much of our staff is made up of returning employees or former campers who are now in college.
The entire team at Camp Tall Timbers is a wonderful mix of teachers, coaches and college students. Each staff member is carefully selected for their teaching expertise in a given activity area, their personality, as well as their interest in working with children.
All staff members report to camp several days ahead of our campers so that they may go through our Counselor Institute. At Counselor Institute we thoroughly review daily responsibilities, situations that may arise, expectations for staff conduct and emergency procedures. Additionally, by the time our campers arrive, our staff has reviewed all the information about their individually assigned campers as provided by their parents. This is one more way we strive to ensure a safe, fun and personalized camp experience.

▌Read More about Camp Hidden Meadows
CAMP FACILITIES: Heated swimming pool, indoor and outdoor climbing wall, organic farm, playing fields, trout stream running through the middle of camp. Elevation of camp is 3000 feet making for warm days (not hot) and cool evenings.
Our location has been described by many as breathtaking. Over the years as we have added to our facility we have been extremely mindful to maintain our tranquil setting. As you follow the trail through the riverside meadows and across the foot bridge you come to our “camp village.” Here you will find our office, infirmary, dining hall, cabins, art center and a host of recreational and training facilities such as our sports fields, basketball court, bike shop, pond, climbing walls, challenge course and more. Savoring a freshly picked carrot from our gardens or taking in the view from the high meadows on a mountain board run are long remembered. It is here where the fundamental joy of being a kid is all the excitement that is needed.
The National Forest and adventures outside of camp:
Several of our activities such as rock climbing, caving and backpacking take place outside of camp. Surrounded by National Forest lands we are fortunate in that our location allows us easy access to some of the more notable recreational areas on the east coast. Tremendous opportunities abound for world-class rock climbing, caving and backpacking.
CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Accredited by American Camp Association. Camp founded in 1992.
Time spent away from home should be an opportunity to expand one’s horizons, learn new and exciting skills and make long lasting friendships. Under the guidance of caring and qualified leaders campers are involved in activities that require their participation both physically and mentally. Scaling a bold rock face, saddling a horse for the first time or sampling a dish made of food you helped harvest in our gardens requires an open mind and willingness to try new things — Hidden Meadows is about creating a new way of looking at yourself and your relationship to the world.
In a sense we are a retreat for children, a place where life is simple and free from worldly distractions, a place where young people’s needs come first and one learns the importance of balancing personal interest with those of the community.
Our goal is that each camper returns home feeling great about their accomplishments and with a deepened sense of responsibility for oneself, others and the environment.
CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: CIT programs available to rising Juniors in High School. Junior Leadership program available to rising Seniors in High School.
