At Beam kids learn to make their ideas happen through fine and manual arts, technology and collaboration. Every summer campers collaborate on spectacular Beam Projects and engage with our full-time and visiting staff of professional architects, videographers, builders, engineers, designers, and makers of all kinds. They learn the tools, techniques and temperaments of creation to apply to their own plots, plans and schemes. They swim, hike, play games and enjoy 750 acres of mountain, forests and lakes, while transforming ideas into artifacts and personal achievement into community success.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Job Description<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Beam Camp seeks an experienced maker\/hacker\/technologist to curate and deliver unique classes for kids 7 &#8211; 17 in the electrical, hacking and technology arts and to be an active participant in Beam Camp\u2019s unique summer community of fun and learning.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Responsibilities<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Plan and deliver afternoon Domains (elective courses\/workshops) in your specialty 21\u20442 hours a day, six days a week <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Recommend Domain Guests to be invited to camp for week-long teaching residences <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Manage and maintain camp\u2019s technology assets and equipment<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Coordinate and create video and photo documentation of camp programming <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Act as a relief cabin counselor to cover for regular counselors\u2019 days off and nights out <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Assist in Beam\u2019s other program areas such as athletic and waterfront activities, evening performances and presentations, and special events.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">The job\u00a0requires grace under pressure, good humor and an interest in providing children with valuable <\/span>experiences in creativity, craft and community.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Please email cover letter, resume and references to<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Brian Cohen, Camp Director<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"mailto:brian@beamcamp.com\" target=\"_blank\">brian@beamcamp.com<br \/>\n<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">718-569-0322<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From a current student, Mike Cohen.
