At the end of last year, Tawakoni Camp Manager, Sid Rutland, submitted a letter expressing his intent to leave his position as the first Camp Manager for the Region. After assisting with the training of his successor, Sid plans to move to Oklahoma to be with his fiancé as she finishes school.
The Camp Manager position was created in Fall 2019 and combined maintenance and camp caretaker duties, overseeing camp staff, and marketing Tawakoni’s facilities to new outside clients. The Camp Manager Transition Team, with Sid’s feedback, has taken steps to review and evaluate the position to adjust the job description and expectations.
The successful candidate will have the ability to work with, and at times, supervise paid staff and volunteers. Responsibilities will include overseeing the rental of camp facilities, having knowledge and skills for basic maintenance and repairs, developing and managing budgets, and planning development projects. Skills include knowledge of Microsoft Office programs for record-keeping, writing of reports, and correspondences.
Applications, resumes, and letters of interest are currently being accepted for the next Camp Manager through March 24. A more detailed job description including sought characteristics, job qualifications, and job responsibilities can be downloaded from our website or can be emailed upon request.
