Deputy Camp Director
Matthew Harris Ornstein Summer Debate Institute (MHOSDI) is looking for a Deputy Camp Director to join our team. MHOSDI, entering its 11th year, is an annual joint project of the Matthew Harris Ornstein Memorial Foundation (MHOMF) and the Washington Urban Debate League (WUDL). Each summer we serve approximately 200 rising 6th through 12th graders from predominantly Title I schools in the DC area for a free three-week debate program (typically taking place in late July through early August) that is both educational and fun. While this role could potentially be virtual before and after the Institute, attending in person is required for the three-week duration. This is a seasonal position from March to August with the possibility of applying for a long-term position at WUDL at the Institute’s conclusion. For more information about the Institute, please visit our website here.

- Assisting with day-to-day camp activities

Qualifications:
- Excellent communication skills
