Description
Camp Chippewa for Boys on Cass Lake is staffing up for its 2027 season with counselors who guide campers through outdoor adventure and wilderness tripping. Teachers who enjoy field-based instruction and group leadership will recognize the camp's emphasis on treating counseling as real, resume-worthy professional work.
Camp Chippewa for Boys operates on Cass Lake in northern Minnesota and publishes detailed 2027 key dates for staff, including Wilderness First Aid, lifeguard, and whitewater training ahead of two camper sessions running from mid-June through early August. Counselors live with campers, spend their days outdoors leading sports, nature activities, and wilderness trips, and are encouraged to treat the role as genuine professional experience worth including on a resume. The camp provides transportation from the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport for staff who are not driving, easing travel for out-of-state applicants. This is a good match for teachers who enjoy outdoor education and want a structured, skills-building summer. Exact 2027 pay was not listed on the page reviewed, so candidates should confirm compensation and final openings with Camp Chippewa directly.
