Summer Opportunities
2008
The Rowdy Ridge Gang Camp is a summer camp
program for adult women and their children, ages 1 to 17.
The Camp season will run from June 27th - July 25th, 2008. We are located in the San Gabriel Mountains
(90 minutes north of Los Angeles). Women are graduates from
substance abuse treatment programs and survivors of domestic
violence who continue to participate, along with their children,
in aftercare programs and support groups. This year, The
Rowdy Ridge Gang Camp will serve approximately 500 campers
over a seven-week period consisting of six camp sessions.
The goal of the camp is to provide a fun-filled,
safe, memorable, and educational experience to these families.
To achieve this we require a very caring and energetic staff
dedicated to enriching the lives of these families. Working
in a summer camp setting requires staff members who are team-players,
creative, friendly, cooperative, hardworking, flexible, and
responsible. 2008 Camp season will run from June 27th - July 25th, 2008
Salaried staff members are provided with room
and board in addition to salary ($300/week). Program areas

Study, Sports & Rec., and Swimming (Lifeguard). Deadline
