Our Staff
At Berkshire Trails Camp, our staff is the heart of the experience. They are the passionate mentors, positive role models, and caring guides who shape each camper’s journey — on the fields, on the lake, in the cabins, and throughout our beautiful Berkshires campus.
A Team That Loves Working With Kids
Every staff member is chosen because they genuinely love working with children. They bring energy, patience, enthusiasm, and a deep commitment to helping campers grow with confidence, joy, and independence. Your child will be surrounded by caring adults who celebrate who they are and who they can become.
Mature, Trained, and Highly Supported
All staff participate in extensive pre-camp training in child development, safety, program instruction, and team leadership. Cabin counselors, specialists, coaches, and support staff are carefully supervised by experienced senior leaders who ensure our mission and values guide every day at camp.
A Global Community of International & Domestic Leaders
Our camp attracts talented staff from around the world — creating a vibrant blend of cultures, languages, traditions, and perspectives. From the United States to Europe, South America, Israel, Australia, and beyond, our international team enriches camp life with unique stories, customs, and worldviews. This diverse community helps campers expand their understanding of the world while forming meaningful, lasting friendships.
Building Bonds That Last a Lifetime
Ask any camper and they’ll tell you: staff members become the mentors who inspire them, the cheerleaders who encourage them, and the friends they stay connected to long after summer ends. It is these relationships that make Berkshire Trails Camp truly special.
Champions of Character, Creativity, and Care
Our staff doesn’t just lead activities — they model kindness, responsibility, resilience, and compassion. They help campers try new things, discover passions, take healthy risks, and build confidence in a nurturing environment where everyone feels seen and supported.
