Turn a Gap Year into a USA Summer Camp Experience!
If your child is finishing Matric this year and still figuring out what to do next, here’s an incredible opportunity to turn uncertainty into adventure and earn while doing it!
Instead of jumping straight into studies or staying home, they can spend their gap year in the USA working as a Summer Camp Counselor in 2026 enjoying an endless summer, gaining international work experience, and getting paid in dollars.
Through Hopscotch Travel’s Summer Camp USA program, young South Africans aged 18- 26 can spend May to August working at reputable American summer camps. Their role is simple but meaningful: keeping campers safe, happy, and engaged in activities that make lifelong memories. Counselors often become mentors and friends, many describe it as “the best summer of their lives.”
This program is perfect for anyone who:
- Loves the outdoors and working with people
- Has experience with children (coaching, tutoring, babysitting, or teaching)
- Wants a gap year job that builds confidence, independence, and global experience
Hopscotch ensures each participant is matched with a trusted, accredited camp that provides free accommodation, meals, and community throughout their stay. In their downtime, counselors get to explore nearby towns, visit iconic U.S. cities, and experience authentic American culture.
And here’s the best part: Hopscotch Travel has 25 funded flights available! Participants can fly to the USA now and repay the flight cost once they start earning.
Why Choose Hopscotch’s Summer Camp USA Experience?
- Earn a minimum of R42,000 in 9 weeks
- Accommodation and meals included
- Basic U.S. health insurance for the duration of your stay
- In-person training and onboarding before departure
- Access to Hopscotch’s Camp Club Community for ongoing support
Help your child turn 2026 into a year of purpose, adventure, and growth. It’s not just a gap year, it’s a step forward. Let them spread their wings, gain confidence, and return home with stories, friendships, and real-world experience.
