At Camp Allegheny, we’re looking for dedicated staff who love children and have a passion for sharing Christ’s love through service and community.
As a Christian camp operated by The Salvation Army our ministry serves children ages 6-12 years old from Western Pennsylvania. Many of our campers come from under-served communities, and we provide them with a low-cost summer camp experience they might not otherwise have. Our mission is to create an unforgettable, faith-filled week where campers experience God’s love in action while enjoying outdoor adventures in a safe and nurturing environment.

Each day is packed with exciting, high-energy activities, including:
🎨 Arts & Crafts – Encouraging creativity and self-expression
🌿 Nature & Hiking – Exploring the outdoors and building survival skills
🏀 Athletics – Promoting teamwork and physical fitness
🧗 Rock Wall – Encouraging confidence and personal growth
🏊 Swimming – Making a splash with fun water activities
Many of our programs feature themed events filled with songs, skits, games, and unforgettable moments.
A Christ-Centered Experience
Campers begin and end each day with devotions in their cabin groups, setting the foundation for spiritual growth. As staff, you play a vital role in leader by example, actively participating in worship, activities, and fellowship.
