Mountain Lab School Instructors

Although summer camp only runs 10 weeks, Id-Ra-Ha-Je is open year-round. In fact, approximately 2,000 students come to camp for outdoor education during the fall and spring season. To keep up with the 40+ schools that come up, Camp hires MLS Instructors to teach, belay, swim, play, build fires and much more. If a semester or two in the mountains sounds interesting, download an application or send us a message.

Camp Id-Ra-Ha-Je is looking for dedicated young adults (age 21 to 25) interested in a hands-on experience in Christian Camping. The MLS Instructor program is limited to a maximum of 6 to 8 persons per semester. These instructors will work alongside Camps' permanent staff in many areas to gain a knowledge of what a year-round camping ministry is all about. The emphasis is to teach Biblical concepts of servant leadership.
