Employment at Camp Knutson
Camp Knutson is an accepting and nurturing community. At Camp, campers can experience, sometimes for the first time in their lives, what it is like to not be defined by their disability or health condition.
Campers build lifelong friendships here — and so do staff. Our creative, compassionate staff work well together and model what it is to be accepting and nurturing.
Camp Knutson is located on a beautiful peninsula between Big Trout and Lower Whitefish lakes. If the outdoors calls you, Camp K is for you.
