About Camp IHC

Camp IHC is located in Northeastern Pennsylvania. A spectacular, natural setting provides the stage for the adventure of a lifetime.  As a counselor, you will have an opportunity to work with children from ages 7-16. 

Today, more than ever, children need a safe place to stretch their wings so they can experience the best that life has to offer. This is a place where learning and social development take place in a nurturing environment under the watchful eyes of caring adults.

A place that removes the distraction of technology, cell phones, and the internet for seven weeks. The IHC community is one where children and adults respect each other and the environment in which we live.

The Employee Experience

Employees at Camp IHC are integrated into the daily lives of our campers.  During our time at IHC, which will fly by, we eat, sleep and teach in a residential setting.  Through the immersion into the life of a counselor at IHC, one helps guide our campers in social interaction and develop new skills and refining old ones.  

While working at camp you will meet staff from around the world who share similar interests to you and those who differ but share one main goal.  They want to create a place where campers and staff leave stronger than they came.  It is not an easy job, but at Indian Head, we believe that through the challenges come great growth and learning.  If you want a challenge and love working with kids, sign up with us today.

Ideal Candidate

Ideal candidates are open to learning, excited to make new connections, and willing to learn from others.  They look forward to a day with challenges and adventure.  They want to make a difference in children's lives.

Room and Board

Housing is Bunk style living with the campers. The average is 12 kids and 3 staff to a bunk.

Employee Perks

While at camp food and housing are included.  A staff lounge has computers and free wifi to keep you connected, not to mention locally roasted coffee from Moka (check it out). On days off, those who wish can take the complimentary bus shuttle to the day-off location or have access to the many activities IHC has to offer.
