Each year, the Town of Danville depends on nearly 100 seasonal employees to help teach, develop, and safeguard Danville youngsters at summer camps, aquatics, and programs. In addition, they help serve as role models to the children who attend these programs. 

Camp counselor and lifeguard/swim instructor positions offer many development opportunities to those who are new to the workforce, in communication, teamwork, and responsibility. These life skills will benefit staff long after the summer is over and into their future. All selected staff go through extensive training to ensure pertinent skills and techniques are mastered.  

The Town of Danville is currently recruiting responsible and enthusiastic individuals to lead our annual summer camp and aquatics programs. Summer jobs run from June 5 to July 28, 2023. View the summer camp and aquatics job informational page

Application Due Dates:

Summer Camps: Applications are due no later than May 12, 2023, for summer camp positions.

Aquatics: Applications will stay open until filled for lifeguard/swim instructor positions.

What is an Enrichment Camp?

Enrichment camps are classes held on specific subjects, generally offered in a Monday through Friday format. These "camps" may be anywhere from 1 to 6 hours per day, depending on the subject and camper age range. Register Online for camps!

Camp Deposit Option

The Town of Danville is pleased to offer a Camp Deposit option for Camp registration only. For a $50 deposit fee per child per barcode, you can reserve the weeks of camp you need (anywhere from 1 to 8 weeks). The remaining balance will automatically be billed to your credit card 4 weeks prior to the first day of each camp week. Standard withdrawal and refund policy apply. Available for credit card payments only. Credit card processing fees will be applied. A valid credit card will be kept on file.

Residency Status Clarification

For residents outside the incorporated Town of Danville limits:

Each quarter, the Town receives a number of questions regarding the residency status for individuals and families wishing to register for Town-sponsored programs and activities. Those living outside the Danville Town limits include residents of the communities of Alamo and Diablo, and the Alamo Creek, Bettencourt Ranch, Blackhawk, Bryan Ranch, Monterosso, Shadow Creek, and Whitegate housing developments. In order to verify your residency in Danville, you can:

  1. Look up your street address in the index of the Thomas Bros. Guide; it will state Danville or Contra Costa County for zip code 94506
  2. Review the information on your property tax bill
  3. Check your residency status online

Fees

The program and facility fees cover a large portion of the actual costs, though Town of Danville residents also partially support the classes, events, and facilities through their property tax assessments. Because of this, those program participants and individuals reserving Town facilities who live outside of Danville pay an additional non-resident charge.
