AMERICORP Summer Camp opportunity

PRINCETON — College students looking to put their skills to good use will want to check out Horseshoe Leadership Center.  

“We’re looking for college-age students who want to use their skills, energy, and passion for shaping a better world by influencing today’s teens and children,” said David Cooper, Horseshoe director.

“Horseshoe summer camp counselors make all the difference in the lives of campers,” he continued.  “Yes, Horseshoe is fun, friends, and all the great times that happen at camp, but it is so much more.  Each week adds experiences to help our campers become all they can be, plus return home ready to serve others, and build better futures for all.”

Horseshoe’s summer season includes nationally recognized teen civic leadership and entrepreneurship camps, Adventure Camp for 7 – 12 year olds, and Youth Opportunity Camps for low-income boys and girls.

Summer residential staff enhances their work experience as they use their talents to help teens and children.  Summer positions provide a living allowance, an AmeriCorps Education Award to eligible summer camp counselors, meals, and lodging.  AmeriCorps & the Horseshoe Leadership Center can provide each AmeriCorps Volunteer a weekly living allowance, housing, and meals plus the opportunity for an AmeriCorps Education Award to those who meet the qualifications.

For information, call Horseshoe at 304-478-2481, e-mail horseshoe@yla-youthleadership.org or write Horseshoe Leadership Center at 3309 Horseshoe Run Rd, Parsons, WV  26287-9029.
