Dear [Mr./Mrs./Ms.] [Manager’s Name],

My name is [YOUR NAME] and I was delighted to learn of the available Camp Counselor position at [CAMP]
posted on [WEBSITE]. I am Licensed Professional Counselor, and have eight years of experience leading
interactive, lively, and educational summer camps for youth ages 5-15. I hold valid First Aid, CPR, and
Lifeguarding certifications as well as Wilderness First Responder Training. My education, experience, and
certifications make me a qualified candidate, but my enthusiastic leadership style, passion for youth
development, and dedication to providing a stimulating camp environment set me apart from the
competition.

Throughout my previous camp counselor positions, I have played a vital role in planning and executing
outstanding youth camps. I worked closely with management and other camp counselors to coordinate
programs offering a blend of developmental activities, physical exercise, and entertainment. In my position
as Senior Camp Counselor, I refined my teamwork, leadership, and communication skills, allowing me to lead
a team of camp counselors committed to providing an environment for children to build memories that last
a lifetime.

Highlights of my qualifications from previous employment include:

 Planning daily camp activities, ranging from arts and crafts to sports, wilderness education, and interactive
games for 40 children ages 6-12
 Implementing a three-step conflict resolution protocol for children displaying unruly behavior, resulting in a
15% decrease in conflicts
 Leading overnight excursions for 10+ children covering a range of activities such as hiking, outdoor cooking,
swimming and canoeing
 Providing training for camp counselors to ensure health and safety standards were upheld

I am enthralled to have the opportunity to share my affinity for wilderness, recreational activities, and
childhood development with the youth of your establishment. Thank you for considering my application to
join the [CAMP NAME] team. I look forward to setting up an interview in the near future.

Yours truly,

[Your Name]
