Thank you for your interest in applying for a counselor position at Camp Hope 2012!  The Counselor Applications will be available on our website in two weeks.  In the meantime, we want to make you aware of some important changes we have made to our application process.   Over the past several summers, Camp Hope has grown such that now we have more applicants than there are counselor spots available.  To manage this and to help alleviate waiting lists from developing, we will review all counselor applications after the deadline, before making final selections rather than accept applications on a first-come, first-serve basis.  By so doing, we ensure that everyone has the same opportunity to be considered, as long as applications are in on time.  New this year will be an interview process.  This will be take place after we receive all possible applications.  Keep in mind that during the application process, interviews, references and prior Camp Hope experience and feedback will all be considered.

After much prayer and consideration, we feel that this new process will provide all applicants an equal opportunity to serve at Camp Hope and more importantly, provide a quality experience for our campers.  Please feel free to give us a call or send us an e-mail if you have any questions about the change in process.  We look forward to receiving your applications once they are available online in two weeks!

Blessings,

Rev. Diane Parrish, President and Founder

Cris Hunt, Director Programs
