Parting words of wisdom:
“Only those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life's deepest joy: true fulfillment." -Tony Robbins
A day in the life of a counselor at Mountain Meadow Ranch is an opportunity to genuinely love and care for kids while providing them with a safe atmosphere that challenges and grows them. All while, growing yourself. As a counselor, you and one or two co-counselors will have your own cabin of campers that you live with. In a cabin, there are roughly 10-15 campers and it is equipped with bunk beds, showers, restrooms, and storage for our staff. While you only spend rest periods and evenings in the cabin, it is a place where much of the connecting and growing will happen. Here you are expected to practice communication with your co-staff, learn about your kids, and ensure that they are safe both physically and emotionally. Outside of the cabin, counselors work at a specified activity area. This is where you will have an opportunity to share your passion, help campers overcome fear, and enjoy the great outdoors. We have two activity periods - one before lunch and one after lunch. As directors, we know these days can get long, but don't fear, we have set aside an hour each day for our counselors to take a break and you will also have 24 hours off each week!
MMR is notorious for its high return rate and our small camp size allows for a true family atmosphere. What we believe sets us apart from other camps is our 100% focus on the kids, and staff that is eager and willing to grow and dance outside their comfort zones. Through our heart commitment vast is the opportunity for self-growth and whole self-discovery! Our technology-free environment and the practice of servant leadership throughout the camp family beckons enjoyment of each present moment. Being a part of the Mountain Meadow Ranch family is a life-changing experience and we are so excited to invite new staff to join us!
Room, board, meals, and laundry are all a part of the deal at Mountain Meadow Ranch - we do not dock your pay or charge you a fee. (*exception; staff are encouraged to enjoy the weekly 24-hour day off, off camp property.)
Initial transportation to Mountain Meadow Ranch can be arranged by airport via the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. We will arrange your pick-up from the airport and your return to the airport at the end of camp. Once at camp, the only need for transportation will be during your 24 hours off. There is no public transportation near camp and carpooling among counselors is the most popular way to travel on days off. If you are able, bringing your own vehicle to camp is a great way to get around.
If you like the outdoors, there will be no shortage of fun and adventure on your days off. Camp is located close to some spectacular country including the Lassen Volcanic National Park, Lake Tahoe, and in our own backyard, the Plumas-Lassen National Forest. Hiking, rock climbing, visiting the National Parks, camping, swimming, and fishing are all apart of our staff's typical down time. And for those who prefer to stay in town on days off, there are plenty of restaurants to choose from, as well as a movie theater, and riverside trails to enjoy.
