Who are the Runoia counselors and staff?
For the most part, our counselor and staff members are college students, recent graduates, or teachers. Most are aged 19 to 30. Each summer we hire about 35 counselors/instructors and about 10 support staff. The majority of our counselors are from the U.S. and usually 6-8 counselors are from other countries. We value diversity and accept candidates for employment without regard to: race, religion, sexual orientation, cultural background or social-economic status. We are a group of enthusiastic, energized, caring people who are excited about sharing our talents with campers. The Runoia culture does not support a party atmosphere, instead our culture promotes healthy living and an opportunity to enjoy a summer filled with new experiences. We are one of the few camps without a curfew because we feel strongly our counselors are adults and are able to handle the responsibility of their own time off. Camp Runoia is a non-smoking environment and does not allow any tobacco products on campus.
