Job Description

Camp Hurontario, a boys' summer camp located on a beautiful island of the Georgian Bay, is looking to hire a woodworking instructor to join us for the summer of 2026. Leave the city behind and spend the summer teaching your passion to boys aged 5-16 in groups no larger than eight at a time, always assisted by two experienced summer camp counsellors.

Our woodcraft shop is well-equipped with all the machinery and supplies you'll need to guide campers in making their woodworking projects. Some popular projects for younger campers are door-knockers, sailboats, snakes, wall plaques, and mini canoe paddles. Our older campers take pride in working on their own full-sized canoe paddles, or producing projects as a group. We are looking for a candidate who is safety-conscious, engaging, knowledgeable, and has a creative flare. We are also looking for staff who enjoy working with children and working in the outdoors.

Join our friendly co-ed staff of 110 to spend the summer making new friends and living with those who share your interest in working with children in a beautiful outdoor environment. Aside from your salary, full accommodation and all meals will be provided by the camp during the work term, which constitutes of June, July and August of 2026.

To apply, please attach or send a CV and cover letter to the camp's email, addressed to David Freel.
