A typical summer commitment is about ten weeks long at our CA locations and seven weeks at our New England location, including a week of training & orientation at each. Each of our three camp locations has a slightly different start and end dates, especially if you are in a leadership role. 

Apply anyway! We may be able to find you a spot for a partial summer commitment.

Fantastic! Let us know when you apply. We usually have staff needs post-summer.

Living in community with like-minded college-aged roommates is one of the best parts of the Hume Summer Staff experience. All summer staff are housed in shared dormitory-style housing with same genders. Counseling positions require staff members to reside in cabins with campers when they are counseling. 

Hume Lake and Hume SoCal 
Pay rates start at approximately $484 weekly*, and increase slightly based on previous Hume summer experience and the nature of your role. Meals are an out-of-pocket expense at $5 per consumed meal in the dining room.  

*Current CA weekly pay rates are subject to change depending on the outcome of current minimum wage legislation to be determined at the November election. Should CA minimum wage law change, we will update this section in mid November 2024.
