Here’s a plug outside our usual area of expertise and attention. We usually don’t do this kind of piece, but we’re great fans of The Fresh Air Fund. Year in and year out they provide terrific summer opportunities to kids in need of a break from the city.

The long and short- The Fresh Air Fund is looking for staff members to work with kids in summer camps. They’re looking for camp counselors, waterfront and recreation people, nurses, ropes course instructors and coordinator program manager types. You can apply online. These are great summer opportunities for school people. Please pass them along.

If you’re unfamiliar with The Fresh Air Fund, I urge to learn more. They do tremendous work.

Find them on: Twitter, Youtube, Digg, Facebook, Delicious, StumbleUpon and of course their site or watch this short video on the Fresh Air Fund camp counselor experience:
