The job description will tell you the official HR version of this job. This is the part where I tell you what I actually mean.

Hi, I’m Allison. I oversee Camp Immokalee, and I’m going to try to give you a better idea of what you’re getting into. If you have any questions along the way, email me at akrabill@fcymca.org.

If you’re seeing this, this page is technically a draft and the official job listing isn’t up yet. The below are just placeholders for when they are! If you’d like an email when it officially opens, please email me at akrabill@fcymca.org. I expect this to be sometime before Sept. 8.

Who We Need

You know those camp TikToks that start with “Can I speak to your camp director?” and then pan to someone in a banana suit?

That person.

We’re looking for the person who will absolutely be in the banana suit, but who also spent the morning making sure the schedule worked, everyone knew what they were doing, and the banana suit was where it was supposed to be.

You have to love the details. You should have feelings about our cardboard cutter and be genuinely excited about the arts & crafts closet. Glitter can annoy you (because glitter is annoying), but you can’t hate it.

At Halloween Camp, we do Haunted Trails. Three different, age-appropriate experiences happening simultaneously across camp. And I need them to be REALLY frickin’ good. REALLY frickin’ immersive.

That’s this job.

And then there’s unreasonable hospitality.

You have to love signs. I’m serious. You cannot have unreasonable hospitality without signage. If a group is coming to camp, they should know where to park, where to go, and what they’re supposed to do next. We knew they were coming. It should look like we knew they were coming.

You don’t get to just have the idea. You have to figure out how we’re actually going to do it, even if it involves duct tape, a LOT of straws, and three Sysco-size bags of marshmallows.

Sometimes you’re working the walkie. Sometimes you’re making the sign. Sometimes you’re wearing the banana suit.

You have to commit to the bit.

What You’ll Actually Do

We have people at camp almost every weekend.

Sam, our Camp Concierge, books our groups. Then they’re yours. You’ll plan their weekend, talk to them about what they want to do while they’re here, staff it, and make sure we’re ready for them. Sometimes you’ll run the weekend. Sometimes you’ll hand it off to someone else to run. You cannot work every weekend. Please don’t try.

And then we have camp.

During summer and our off-season camps, you oversee our activities and Activity Leads and make everything bigger than it probably needs to be. You plan the special events, EAs, EPs, all-camps, whatever you call them. (We can argue about terminology later.) If there’s a theme, I want to be able to tell without looking at the schedule.

That’s the job. Different people are coming through the gate every week.

Your job is to make sure we’re ready for them.

The People You’ll Do This With

You’ll report to our Senior Director of Camping and work with pretty much everyone else at camp.

Sam, our Camp Concierge, books our groups. You take it from there. Roland, our Property Manager, and his team get the property ready for them. If someone gets here and there’s no toilet paper in their cabin, obviously, fill it up. Then add it to Roland’s list so we remember to check it next time.

During camp, you’ll work closely with our Activity Leads and seasonal leadership team. You don’t have to personally run every activity or special event. You need to make sure the people who are running them know the plan and have what they need.

And you’ll work with me, too. I oversee camp, and I’m probably going to have ideas. Some of them will be good. You should tell me when the others aren’t. I also handle our marketing, so there’s a pretty good chance I’ll want to talk to you about how something looks, what we’re calling it, or whether we can make it better.

We’re a small year-round team, and we all work out of one big office. You’ll have a boss and you’ll have things that are yours, but there’s not a lot of “that’s not my job” around here.

Where You’ll Live

On-site housing is required for this role. And when we say housing, this is what we mean.

Thanks to a gift from an incredible anonymous funder, we finished TWO new houses at camp in May 2026. 3 bedrooms. 2 bathrooms. Laundry room. Pantry. WALK-IN SHOWER?!

Walkthrough/donor thank you video below. (Because why not repurpose content, amiright?!)

We’re in Keystone Heights, which is a small town. You can get groceries, go out to eat, get ice cream, go to Walgreens or CVS, hit Walmart or TJ Maxx about 20 minutes away, and generally get the things you need without driving an hour. There are local restaurants, trivia and music bingo nights, markets, trails, and other stuff happening around town. You’ll get invites to stuff at my house or Roland’s house or even Sam’s, but you never have to come.

There are also schools and childcare options nearby if that’s something you need. I’m happy to give you recs.

And when you want more than Keystone has, Gainesville is about 40 minutes away. Jacksonville and St. Augustine are a little over an hour, and Orlando is just over two hours. So you can go to a Gators game, see a concert, spend a day at the beach, go to Universal, or just go to Target because sometimes that’s the activity.

P.S. Anyone 16+ who lives with you will need to pass a Level 2 background check and be approved by senior leadership.
