When looking to work at an American Summer Camp, the ability to travel for 30 days after the completion of your contract is undoubtedly one of the biggest selling points. Because of this, making sure that the location of the camp you choose allows for easy travel is extremely important. Camp Starlights’ north-west Pennsylvania location means that it is a short trip from major locations such as New York City, Philadelphia and more.
Another hugely important factor to take into consideration when choosing the best American summer camp for you is how easy it is to get to. The United States is an incredibly big country, so places tend to be a lot further away than you may assume. It is therefore extremely important to do some research on the location of the camps before deciding which is best for you.
Camp Starlight’s location is very well located for both New York and Pennsylvania regions. This therefore means that staff members travelling from overseas can take advantage of airports in both states.
Most camps within the United States will provide transport from the airport to the camp to make your journey as simple as possible. Upon arrival at the airport, you will be greeted by a friendly face who is there to pick you up and bring you to your home for the summer.
This ensures that once you have completed your long flight to the United States, you do not have to worry about any transportation or logistics. Simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the beautiful journey through the Pennsylvanian mountains.
Once you have completed your 8-week summer contract, your working visa allows you an extra 30 days for travel around the United States. This gives you more than enough time to travel to all of the amazing locations that the country has to offer. Whether you want to experience the landmarks and culture of the big cities or the natural beauty of America’s countless national parks, there is something for everyone.
The incredible location of Camp Starlight means you are less than a 2hr 30 min drive from the Incredible New York City and quite literally a stone’s throw from the breathtaking landscape of rural New York State. So if you are looking for a summer camp job that gives you easy access to travel the country after camp has finished, Starlight is the perfect camp for you.
Pennsylvania is home to countless stunning national parks and incredible cities. So if you ever stuck on where to travel to after camp, Pennsylvania has everything you could want.
While there are so many amazing locations within the state of Pennsylvania, there are also many major cities in the surrounding states that are must-visits when travelling around the northeast of America.
By far the most popular location in the United States, New York City, is just a 2hr 30min drive from Camp Starlight. The city is full of hugely iconic landmarks such as the Empire State Building, The Statue Of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, Central Park and so many more. So whether you are spending a single night in the city or a full week, the options to see and experience are endless.
Another city located not too far from the campgrounds of Camp Starlight is Philadelphia. The city is home to some of the most historic landmarks in the country such as the Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell Center as well as more modern iconic locations such as the Rocky Steps or Love Park. There is also so much culture and incredible food that you must experience when visiting the city of brotherly love.
When travelling the Each Coast of America, another city that you must visit due to its incredible history and stunning architecture is Boston, Massachusetts. While throughout history Boston has always been known for being the site of the American Revolution, today it is mostly known for its sport. It is home to two of the most iconic stadiums in American sports, Fenway Park, home to the Boston Red Sox and also TD Garden which is home to the Boston Celtics.
