Join Our Counselor Team
at Blue Mountain Ranch

Are you looking for a summer job that’s more than just a job? At Blue Mountain Ranch, being a counselor means becoming a mentor, a role model, and a friend to campers who will remember you for a lifetime.

Our staff is made up of college-age students and graduates who bring enthusiasm, leadership, and a genuine love for working with kids. You’ll have the opportunity to teach skills, lead activities, and inspire campers in an environment that values fun, growth, and connection. If you have specialized talents—whether in sports, arts, outdoor skills, or aquatics—we’ll match you with the area where you can shine. Proper certifications are required for some activities, but training is provided.

With a counselor-to-camper ratio of just 1 to 6, you’ll build close relationships and make a real impact on the lives of your campers. Our philosophy is simple: camp should be a place where kids can relax, be themselves, and enjoy being kids. As a counselor, you won’t be pushing campers to win at all costs—you’ll be supporting them, encouraging them, and celebrating their successes, big and small.

Being part of the Blue Mountain Ranch team also means unforgettable memories, lifelong friendships, and the chance to spend your summer in the beautiful Colorado mountains. If you’re ready for meaningful work, laughter-filled days, and a summer you’ll never forget, we’d love for you to apply.
