Camp Louise
About Company
Camp Louise is a resident summer camp for girls, ages 7-17, located in Cascade, MD. For 100 years, campers have been coming to Camp Louise to participate in fun and exciting activities, challenge themselves and grow as individuals, and connect with their Jewish heritage and community. Singing and dancing are two activities at Louise that are particularly loved by many of our campers. Each Friday evening, the entire camp community comes together to participate in a musical Shabbat service before dinner. After the meal, everyone once again gathers for a lively and inclusive song and dancing session. On Saturdays we begin the day with another musical service. For many of our campers, Shabbats at Louise are the most significant and meaningful Jewish experience they have all year.
The song leader plays a critical role in creating this engaging Jewish environment.The Camp Louise Song Leader would be responsible for:
· Coordinating and leading Friday night and Saturday morning Shabbat services
· Coordinating and leading Friday night song session

The Song Leader would ideally have the following qualifications:
· Several years of experience playing guitar or piano

The Louise song leader lives onsite, at our beautiful camp, for the duration of the summer season (June 16-August 13). Room and board is provided, and weekly time off is given. To learn more about our amazing camp, check out our website.
