Director - Sound View Camp & Retreat Center

Full Time, Year Round

Job Title: Camp and Retreat Center Director

Job Description:  Direct the overall operation of Sound View Camp and Retreat Center

Sound View Camp and Retreat Center is seeking a director.  The camp’s main focus is on the Summer Camp Ministry reaching out to children and families, but it also is available to weekend guest groups throughout the off season.  Set on 115 wooded acres in the Pacific Northwest, the camp has half a mile of beautiful waterfront acreage on Puget Sound.  On site, the facilities include a dining hall, two retreat buildings with housing for 24 and 36 people, rustic cabins, and platform tents.  Also, on site there is a permaculture garden, trails and a stable that has been used for horses.  Some of the activities offered are boating, a ropes course, paintball, gaga ball, and pickleball.  Located about an hour drive from Tacoma, Washington this would be considered a peaceful secluded location, off the beaten track but close enough to the small town of Key Center or larger communities in Gig Harbor and Tacoma to drive for entertainment, socializing, and groceries. 

Our ideal candidate would be seeking a unique opportunity to work in a pristine rustic camp environment that serves God’s people. We truly believe that a call to camping ministry and a passion for servant ministry are essential for this position.
