New CITs

Are you interested in becoming a CIT for the 2026 summer? We would love to have you!

CIT positions are open to anyone who graduated from Camp Onas in 2024 or 2023.

The CIT application process has three components: a written application, a group interview, and letters of recommendation. The written application for the 2026 summer will be available beginning on Dec. 27 and all applications must be turned in on Jan. 20.

All interviews will be held on Saturday, Jan. 24 or Sunday, Jan. 25. You will select a time slot for the group interview in your written application.

Your two letters of recommendation must be submitted by Jan. 31. The recommender form will be linked in the application.

We will notify applicants of our decisions on or before Feb. 28.

Applications open on Dec. 27 at this link.

New Older Staff

If you graduated from Onas before 2023 or are new to the Onas community, we would love to consider your application too!

Applications will open from Dec. 27 – Jan. 25 at this link. Applicants will be notified by Feb. 28 of all hiring decisions.

If you don’t think filling out a written application is the best way to tell us about yourself or if you need an accommodation, please reach out to Dex, our Assistant Director, at dex@camponas.org or 610-847-5858.

Returning Staff

We’re so happy to hear that you’re hoping to come back to Camp! We will send out an email with times to chat on Zoom about your application, but we would like you to fill one out first, even if your application might change based on our conversation.

Applications will be open from Dec. 27 – Jan. 25 at this link. Applicants will be notified by Feb. 28 of all hiring decisions.
