Florida Elks Youth Camp Counselor Internship

Are you looking for an internship where you can develop your public speaking skills in a real life environment?  One where you can develop your inter/intrapersonal communication skills? Perhaps you’re looking to build your patience.  Maybe you’re looking to detox from your phone and other electronics.  Maybe you struggle with being creative and want to unlock another side of yourself. 

Maybe it’s something completely different, but whatever it is you’d be hard pressed to not find it here at the Florida Elks Youth Camp.  FEYC  isn’t your typical youth camp.  Here at FEYC we empower our staff to handle any issue that may arise in our campers.  You’ll receive guidance and support from the staff above you, but in the end our goal is to teach you how to handle anything thrown your way with the assistance of your Counselor-In-Training. 

If you go to feyc.org and click Counselors you’ll be able to watch a short video describing our mission here at FEYC.

This internship pays $300 a week for 8-weeks.  You’ll be fed three meals and a snack every day.  You’ll be staying in a cabin with 7 campers and one other staff member.

All we require from our staff is an 8-week commitment and the desire to help kids become people we’d be proud to have as adults.  We also require our staff to be comfortably uncomfortable with being weird and silly; no one is too cool for  school.

Scholarships are available, up to $5,000 a year after working two years at camp.

I look forward to seeing your application at feyc.org.  If you have any questions please reach out to Elliott Gilbert at elliott@feyc.org
