Working at camp can be physically and mentally demanding, however, it’s also extremely rewarding and sometimes even magical. Employment at Camp Tuolumne Trails offers an exceptional, often life-changing experience. With a minimum requirement of one staff person to every three campers, we look for dynamic adults with a love for the outdoors and a sincere interest in working with both children and adults with disabilities.
Along with work experience and learning skills, seasonal staff have opportunities to connect with other aspiring professionals in a variety of fields. Many of our past staff members have been aspiring teachers, naturalists, recreation therapists, speech and occupational therapists, nurses, psychologists, and more.
We are built on 80 scenic acres of Sierra Nevada wilderness, seven miles from Groveland, an hour from Yosemite National Park, and about 2 1/2 hours from the Bay Area (San Francisco, Berkeley, San Jose, Oakland) so there are many local and nearby sites to explore and enjoy.
