Creation Station Coordinator

SRA Management Group LLC • Franklin, MA

About The Position

The Adirondack Club Summer Camp continues to evolve each year, introducing new programming that challenges, inspires, and engages campers in meaningful ways. For Summer 2026, we are launching the Creation Station, a structured, rotating build‑and‑create experience inside our glass classroom space where campers ages 5–13 participate in weekly design challenges focused on building, problem‑solving, engineering thinking, and creative collaboration.

The Creation Station Coordinator will help shape this brand‑new program in partnership with camp leadership. This is an opportunity to bring your creativity, hands‑on building experience, and passion for working with kids into a program that will become a signature part of our summer.

The Creation Station Coordinator is responsible for designing, organizing, and leading a structured weekly build‑and‑create curriculum for all camp groups. Each group (typically divided into two‑year age bands) will visit the Creation Station once per week for 1.5–2 hours.

This role blends structured building, creative engineering thinking, design constraints, and collaborative problem‑solving. It is not a traditional STEM instructor position and not an arts‑and‑crafts role—it sits in the exciting middle space where creativity meets construction.

You will work closely with the Camp Director and Assistant Camp Director to develop a 9‑week challenge plan, prepare materials, and ensure the Creation Station runs smoothly throughout the summer.

Pre‑summer planning hours will be available and scheduled after meeting with camp leadership. These hours will be used to finalize weekly plans, build supply systems, and prepare the space.

Requirements

• Experience working with children in camp, school, or recreational settings
• A background or strong interest in creative building, design projects, engineering thinking, architecture, construction, robotics, or hands‑on maker activities
• Leadership presence and confidence managing groups in a fun, structured environment
• Ability to design age‑adjusted, challenge‑based activities for campers ages 5–13
• Strong organization and planning skills
• Comfort managing materials, tools, and a structured build‑and‑create space
• First Aid/CPR certification (or willingness to obtain before camp begins through our camp training)

Responsibilities

• Develop & Implement Weekly Innovation Challenges — Create one structured challenge per week with age‑adjusted variations.
• Curriculum & Material Planning — Collaborate with camp leadership to finalize curriculum and request materials in advance.
• Lead Sessions — Facilitate engaging, structured 1.5–2 hour sessions that balance creativity and discipline.
• Space Organization & Inventory Management — Maintain clean, organized systems for building materials, tools, and supplies.
• Collaboration with Camp Staff — Work alongside Lead Counselors and Assistant Staff to support group management and transitions.
• Documentation & Growth — Photograph builds and provide brief summaries to support camp marketing and program development.
