Pecometh’s mission is to provide a sanctuary for Christian hospitality and programming that promotes God-inspired, life-changing experiences. While we don’t require staff to identify as Christian, we expect enthusiastic and open-minded participation in our Christian community. This includes singing grace at meals, encouraging campers to engage in Bible study and prayer, and modeling Christian values. We are inclusive and affirming, with no discrimination based on race, gender, sexual identity, national origin, or church affiliation.

You’ll work on-site from Sunday at 10:30 am through Friday afternoon. Your day starts with breakfast at 8:00 am, and campers are typically in bed by 9-10 pm. After "lights out," staff have some on-site free time. You’ll also get most weekends off, from Friday at 4 pm until Sunday at 10:30 am, though all staff must work one weekend during their contract.

Paid time off is available based on the length of your contract:

• 5-6 week contract: 1 paid day off
• 7-9 week contract: 2 paid days off
• 10+ week contract: 3 paid days off

Additional time off is unpaid and subject to approval.

Pay varies by position, but base pay for first-year domestic staff is $375/week. International staff are paid according to agency guidelines. Paydays are every other Friday via direct deposit.

You’ll live in rustic cabins with electricity, shared with another staff member and 6-8 campers. Wash houses are nearby for showers and restrooms. Gender-inclusive restrooms are also available at select locations on camp.

Service staffers play essential roles, supporting camp operations as lifeguards, maintenance workers, facilitators, and more. If counselors are the “parents” for the week, service staffers are like the “cool aunt or uncle.”

Yes! You’ll receive meals throughout the week and on weekends. We accommodate dietary needs with advance notice.

We embrace an "unplugged" lifestyle. Campers are not allowed to bring electronics, and staff are expected to set the example by refraining from using devices during work hours. Staff may use their phones for emergencies only and can use electronics in the staff lounge during time off.

Staff wear uniforms on Sundays and Fridays. This includes a staff polo (provided), khaki shorts (you bring), and a name button (provided). The rest of the week, casual and appropriate attire is required.

Yes! Staff should wear clothing that allows freedom of movement and is suitable for camp activities like games, hiking, and water sports. Sun safety and professional appearance are important, and closed-toe shoes are required for most activities. Tattoos and piercings should not display inappropriate content or pose safety risks.

Staying physically and mentally healthy is critical! Personal hygiene, balanced meals, and enough sleep are all important, especially during a busy camp schedule. Staff should plan ahead for any healthcare needs during the summer and communicate with supervisors about time-off requests for appointments or other personal matters.

Pecometh is a drug, tobacco, and alcohol-free environment. Staff must comply with all federal, state, and local laws regarding these substances, and violations are grounds for dismissal. Staff aged 21+ may consume alcohol responsibly during time off, but never around minors.

Consider whether you can commit to training and camp dates, work overnight every week, live without electronics, and thrive in a rustic, fast-paced environment. If these sound like challenges you’re excited to meet, we’d love to have you on the team!
