At Las Mulas, we have an evolution system from camper to counselor for those children who fall in love with the place and seek to continue going year after year. Specifically, there are three stages:
What other benefits do I get from being a counselor?
Each consecutive year they will be given greater responsibilities and payments.
We can write a letter of recommendation for future jobs or college applications
If they are hired again for a fourth year, they will be considered a “Counselor in Training” or “monitor in training” and will do an exchange year. In this experience, the child will trade his job for his transportation, room and board, as well as a more substantial year of training and education.
Finally, a fifth year can result in a real job. If your children go to university in Chile, they may have a summer job for several years. Our best team members are campers who go through all of these stages.
