About Us

Building Our Team.

We put enormous time and energy into building a team of Group Leaders, Specialists, Division Leaders, and Counselors who will do right by your child. We expect our team members to be superstars who generate results (emotional, intellectual, and athletic) and return year after year. Liberty Lake has a reputation as one of the highest-paying camps in the southern/central New Jersey region. And at least half of our team members are former campers!

But we don’t hire young tweens as CITs or Counselors. Our leadership- training program focuses on mentoring young people whom we challenge to ‘get a job’ by applying for it. That’s right: We don’t promise anyone a job – we make them earn it. Dang, don’t we sound like someone’s parents?!? Because we cultivate our own bounty of future team members, we absorb them whole into the Liberty Lake philosophy (don’t worry, their brains are still intact). They ‘pay it forward’ by becoming
the next generation of Counselors and Group Leaders.

Our Screening Process.

Our quest to secure the best and brightest camp professionals is a sacred one during the off-season. Just having a pulse and a winsome smile isn’t enough to qualify as a Liberty Lake team member. Our screening process involves challenging job-interview questions, contacting all provided references, and thorough background checks. This exhaustive process results in us hiring team members who do much more than help kids play kickball or draw pictures. Our Counselors and Specialists are youth-development professionals that foster an atmosphere of trust and respect, promote learning and trying new experiences.
