We are very thoughtful and purposeful about each role onsite. No role exists alone – every hired team member should expect to interact with and potentially support or jump in for other colleagues at camp.
In general, the onsite roles follow this guide but depending on the program needs and site specifics, there may be duplicate roles or a smaller structure. Each site is unique!
During the summer, payroll is processed biweekly (i.e., every other week) for each unit.
Summer 2023 Schedule
| Work Period (Monday – Sunday) | Pay Date (Friday) |
|---|---|
| May 29 – June 11 | June 16 * Atlanta Falcons only* |
| June 12 – June 25 | June 30 |
| June 26 – July 9 | July 14 |
| July 10 – July 23 | July 28 |
| July 24 – August 6 | August 11 |
| August 7 – August 20 | August 25 |
| August 21 – September 3 | September 8 |
Please note there is a one-week delay between the compensation earned for the current week’s work and the pay received.
In other words, each paycheck will not include the current week’s work; instead your compensation includes the pay earned during the two weeks immediately before the current week.
- For example, the payroll running on Friday, July 14th will be for work done during the weeks of June 26th and July 3rd.
