Most Weekends Off

Unlike most other camps, you have most of your weekends off from 6PM on Friday to around 1PM on Sunday. All staff are required to work the equivalent of two of the eight weekends not including training. Some staff choose to work more than two weekends for additional pay and/or to be a part of multiple two-week camper sessions.

On the weekends when you are off, you are encouraged to rest. Camp provides meals on the weekends as well as opportunities for entertainment and travel.

Staff are permitted to leave camp on the weekends, and Sandy Hill typically sponsors staff day trips to New York City, Washington DC, and Rehoboth Beach. For those that stay at camp on the weekends, camp typically provides some meals and recreational opportunities.
