Season of Work

Sargent Center hires adjunct facilitators on an on-going basis. By maintaining a pool of experts, we allow you flexibility in choosing the type and number of programs you lead throughout the year. Our full-time coordinator will work with you to determine when you will be with a group. With the exception of June through August, most Sargent Center programs run on Saturday and Sunday. We are busiest during June, and mid-August through Labor Day. We are unique among peer sites in running our low and high ropes courses year-round.

Flexibility in Designing Your Program

We want you to be able to design a program sequence that works with your strengths to deliver the best possible experience for people in your group. To help you do this, we give you complete adventure notes containing background information, goals, expectations, past participant comments, and past facilitator comments.
