Counselors
Camp Longleaf has 12 female counselors who are at least 18 years of age. All counselors are subject to a background check before hiring and are CPR/first aid trained for your camper’s safety. We look forward to the enthusiasm, outdoor skills, and silly ideas that they bring to camp! If you're interested in spending your summer at Camp Longleaf as a counselor, please visit our "Become a Counselor" Page!
