For every session of camp, we ask for nominations to find a Program Assistant. The PA(s) attends camp for free, and works closely with the Feminist Camp Team to help coordinate each day as well as participating in the program as a camper. We are looking specifically for folks with communication, social media, and people skills, a good sense of (geographical) direction, and a take-charge attitude who can be peer leaders to a dynamic group of feminists.
Duties include:
Before camp, initiating and encouraging introductory conversations in the session's group WhatsApp chat
Attending all the daily meetings and evening events and taking thorough notes
Sharing experiences and meeting details daily through social media
Facilitating lunch when applicable (order/pick up) and completing various other errands as needed to keep things running smoothly
With one week of the program's conclusion, creating a resource guide and contact list
Depending on group size, the Program Assistant may lead a group of campers during breakout sessions--guiding the small group to and from their meeting place and act as a representative of Soapbox to the organization with which the group meets
