2025 Camp Counselor Application

Thank you for applying to work at Camp Wingra. Interviews will be scheduled as we receive applicants, and we hope to have decisions made by April 1st. Presently we need both fishing and water counselors.

Note: This is a full-time job that takes a lot of energy and commitment. If you plan to work another job, please do not apply.

Counselors get June 28th- July 6th off and since there are only 9 weeks of camp, we cannot hire staff that need additional time off. If you have any questions, please contact us at campwingra@madisonboats.com
