Job Title: Curriculum Coordinator

FLSA Status: Seasonal

Reports to: Camp Pepin Director

Starting Pay Rate: $450/week

Camp Pepin’s Curriculum Coordinator is responsible for enhancing the quality of programming at Camp Pepin and works with each member of the Program Staff to ensure that proper procedures are prepared, provided, and performed in all program areas. Although Program Staff members report to the Curriculum Coordinator, they are all part of the leadership team/Program Staff. The Curriculum Coordinator also works with the Camp Director and Program Staff to develop a quality Staff Training week to prepare our staff for the summer.

The Curriculum Coordinator works with our camp staff on the development of Camp Pepin’s Skill Classes. Because we want our instructors to be invested and passionate about the classes they teach, we provide opportunities for them to work together to brainstorm and design quality programs that are both enriching and entertaining for campers. This programming should build on skills throughout the week to culminate in a final activity or event. The Curriculum Coordinator is crucial to the development of these classes, as they explain the expectations and provide feedback and suggestions on how to improve the classes’ curriculum. The Curriculum Coordinator is responsible for ensuring that all staff are provided opportunities to lead activities they are comfortable with, but also to challenge themselves to step out of their comfort zone.

Camp Pepin’s Curriculum Coordinator plays a major role in the success of Camp Pepin, as they oversee the day-to-day impact our staff can have on our campers - not only with mentorship and entertainment, but also through education and inspiration.
