Summer Camp Gymnastics, Fitness, Dance & Cheer Instructor Internship - Berkshires, MA

Lead the moves at Camp Lenox. We are hiring instructors for gymnastics, fitness, dance, and cheer to teach campers, choreograph shows, and bring the energy to camp-wide events, while living with a bunk of campers.

Working at Lenox is more than a summer job. It is an opportunity to lead, grow, and be part of a spirited, down-to-earth camp community that kids and staff take real pride in. Camp Lenox is a coed sleepaway sports camp for ages 7-16 in Otis, MA, in the Berkshires, running since 1918. Think sports, waterfront, outdoors, arts, camp spirit, late-night laughs with staff friends, and the kind of summer people still talk about years later.
