The American Camp Association (ACA-NY) is a non-profit organization focused on working with camp professionals to share our knowledge and experience and to ensure the quality of camp programs. As a professional development intern you will play an integral part of this process. Although this is a small organization, there is a lot happening at once so the ability to multi-task is crucial. The majority of this internship will be geared towards all aspects of event management. However, some days will be spent researching a variety of specialty camps online, creating databases, and contacting members. Basic computer skills are necessary (word, outlook, excel).
ACA-NY is a casual environment but professionalism is expected. If you're interested in learning about event management or how non-profit organizations operate and are looking for someplace to work hard but have fun then this internship is for you.
