STAFF

Next Steps:

  • Print this PDF Physical Exam Form. Then sign, scan and email (or send by U.S. Postal Service) the completed form to the address for the camp you're applying for (provided in the sidebar of that camp description page). Note: The physical must be within 12 months of the start of camp.

  • Submit your information for the mandatory background check if you are 18 or older and will serve as a camp staff member. This step only needs to be done one time each calendar year (regardless of how many camps you apply for in that year). Please keep track of your completion of the process so we don't have to pay another fee for an unneeded additional background check. If you have not already done so for this year, please begin the background check now. We will not be able to consider your staff application without it.
