We also offer a flexible booking guarantee, so that in the unlikely event that your camp placement is affected by COVID, you’re able to transfer your application to 2022 or 2023! This means you won’t miss out on doing AmeriCamp and gaining that summer camp experience!
Alternatively, if you aren’t available for the 8-10 weeks that AmeriCamp requires in a future summer, we will transfer your application to one of our sister Camp.co.uk brands that run from 10 days to 21 days.
We work with over 900 incredible camps all across the States and will work with you to help you find the perfect fit based on your experience with children, skills and preferred job role!

Your average AmeriCamp placement normally lasts from mid-June to mid-August. If you are available from early June until late August, then even better! The more flexible you are with your dates, the more camps there are to view your application.
Sadly, we cannot accept anyone after a June 21st start date, but don’t worry we have other amazing Summer options for you such as AmeriCamp Canada, Camp Thailand, Camp Bali or other programs featured on Camp.co.uk.
Email us at [email protected] with the subject ‘Other Summer Options’ and we will give you a discount off these other programs!

Wit the cheapest fees around and the highest salary, I was able to save money to travel all over America and do some unforgettable adventure!

I chose AmeriCamp and I would have no hesitations in encouraging others to do so; they give you a simple and cheap way to achieve the Camp dream and make sure you’re paid fairly for your hard work! After speaking with friends who used alternative Camp companies, they all wished they had used AmeriCamp!
– Danielle Churchill, Pequot Sherwood Day Camp
Last Summer, I had such an incredible time; thank you AmeriCamp for supporting me the whole way, being super-organised and responding quickly to any questions I had. Speaking to others at Camp, AmeriCamp is by far the best-paid way to go, too.
