Advance Crew / Fall Staff

Advance Crew (April 30 to the start of Staff Training)

April 30 to June 20 Be Part Of Laying The Foundations For Summer (Volunteer Position)

Join this vital group of leaders that is involved in all aspects of preparing Qwanoes for the summer and working with pre-summer guest groups. Advance Crew, which starts on April 26 and goes until the start of Staff Training on June 21, is available to those who will be serving at camp all summer and who are 18 or older.

You Can Arrive Through May & June:

Some positions with financial support require starting in May or early June (we are flexible on the start date) but the Advance Crew option may also be possible for other positions - please inquire as space is limited. The Advance Crew team grows through May and June as staff typically join each week. Usually, positions which start in Advance Crew have a higher support amount available to be raised. Please contact Qwanoes for more information. Please indicate that "I am available for Advance Crew" under "Types of Service" on the summer staff application.
