Refer a Friend


summer camp refer a friend

Do you have a friend that would make an awesome addition to Roughing It? Current and former staff who refer a friend to Roughing It can receive a gift or cash bonus when their friend is hired by Roughing It. Described below are two ways to refer a friend.

Method one is a Formal Referral. To take advantage of a formal referral, your friend must be hired before staff training starts, and you must complete our online referral form before your friend signs their work agreement. After your friend is hired, we will mail you a $50 "instant" bonus. If your friend completes the full summer season with excellent evaluations, you will earn an additional $100, to be mailed out in October. Although directors Ann & Hobie have final say on evaluations, the following are guidelines they will use when determining if a staff member meets a high level of excellence:

  • Completes all requirements as laid out in the work agreement.
  • Shows clear progress and performance advances throughout the summer.
  • Has no disciplinary actions taken to correct poor work performance.
  • Is offered a position for the following summer.

Method two is an Informal Referral. A referral is considered informal when it is generally known that you have referred a friend, but you did not complete our online form before your friend signed their work agreement. In this instance you will not receive the instant ($50) or complete season bonus ($100).  Because we still love you, you'll receive a complimentary $10 Starbucks gift card at the end of staff training. But since a $10 gift card probably won't put much of a dent into paying for your college textbook fees, we highly recommend you consider doing a Formal Referral and completing our Online Staff Referral Form before the end of staff training. Do so now by clicking on the link below:

Or, send your friend to our Summer Jobs Homepage so they can determine whether Roughing It will be right for them.  Questions? Contact our Personnel Coordinator at jobs@roughingit.com
