Specialty Staff
Athletics
Camp Walt Whitman's Athletic Staff prides itself on its team spirit. Though our coaches have a particular interest and experience
in one sport, we do not limit them to coaching one sport, and, in fact, encourage them to be able to coach another.
Our coaches need to be flexible, enthusiastic and well-organized people who can instruct both boys and girls of varying ages (8-15).
We encourage our coaches to apply their experience to designing their own lessons. Generally, a CWW coach teaches between 4 and 6
periods a day, and builds on previous lessons in order to improve knowledge and skill. We expect our coaches to balance skill
development and games with lots of fun.
You will also have the opportunity to hone your own unique coaching style through tournaments and inter-camp competitions.

Waterfront
Every day our waterfront is alive with activity. Beneath the summer sun and amidst a beautiful mountain and forest setting our swim
instructors teach kids different strokes in our heated pool or sparkling mountain lake. The waters of Lake Armington also allow our
boating instructors an opportunity to teach campers about canoeing, sailing and windsurfing. Our waterfront instructors make up a
dynamic team that works well together while also having the freedom to work independently and developing their teaching styles.
Safety is naturally the number one concern on our waterfront. As a CWW waterfront specialist you will be expected to model
responsible behavior.
