Tennis Instructor & Camp Counselor

As a Camp Med-o-lark Counselor, you’ll be a cabin leader, hype-person, and trusted grown-up all in one. You’ll live with campers, help them feel safe and included, and make camp days run smoothly—whether you’re leading activities, cheering on creative moments, or guiding the magic of cabin life in our screen-free, non-competitive community.

Core Responsibilities

Keep Campers Safe & Supported
Be the steady, caring presence in your cabin—supervising campers, following safety procedures, and helping everyone feel secure, seen, and cared for.

Bring the Fun (and the Creativity!)
Lead or assist in activities like arts, music, dance, athletics, or outdoor adventure—making each day engaging, positive, and all about trying new things.

Build Cabin & Camp Community
Help campers make friends, solve conflicts kindly, and feel like they belong. Jump into campfires, evening programs, festivals, and all the big Med-o-lark moments.

Cabin Life = The Real Deal
Guide the daily rhythms—wake-ups, meals, clean-ups, bedtime routines, and everything in between—with clear expectations, good humor, and lots of encouragement.

Be a Great Teammate
Show up for your fellow staff, communicate well, and help keep camp running smoothly—because the best summers are built together.

In addition to being a Cabin Leader, as a Tennis Instructor, you're the upbeat ringleader of the court—teaching players how to serve, swing, and shine while keeping the energy high and the drills fun. You guide beginners and rising stars alike with tips and encouragement as you break down techniques like footwork and follow-through. You plan engaging practices, keep everyone safe and moving, and celebrate every small victory, all while juggling equipment, organizing games, and bringing big camp counselor energy to every session.
