Activities & Shows Staff

opening and closing programs for all participants taking part in trek programs at Philmont Scout Ranch which touches on the history of the land and the significance of the experience. Programmatically these experiences will serve as the first and last impressions of a participant’s time at Philmont and can make a lasting impact. The second role is to care for the housing and recreation of staff living in base camp. This includes providing housing assignments, caring for and staffing the Silver Sage Staff Activities Center, and hosting fun and engaging staff recreation events throughout the season. This role is essential in providing a quality experience and ensuring good morale for the seasonal staff throughout the ranch.
