Arriving before the campers allows for time for the Director and Leadership Staff to welcome you properly to camp. During this time before the campers arrive, you will be able to settle in to your activity and cabin, get to know other staff members, and complete vital training including Red Cross CPR/First Aid, child development training, and insight into the traditions and routines specific to Camp Carysbrook. Workers-In-Training are dismissed on August 14, 2022. Leadership Staff is dismissed on August 16, 2022. All other staff is dismissed on August 15, 2022.

Staff can use the Equipment Needs packing list as a guide. Many staff bring a computer to be stored in the office or staff lounge. A backpack to carry your Staff binder, attendance sheets, and other equipment for running your activity is also recommended. Many staff bring their own car. There is staff parking available on the property.

International staff should consult the International Staff Packing List. Bed linens and towels are provided to international staff. Be certain to bring any medications or supplements that you may need while at camp, as it may be difficult to access prescription medications from overseas.
