International Staff

We are happy to host international staff on J1 visas each summer, these individuals come through international agencies that screen and check backgrounds. During the winter months management attends approximately two recruitment fairs abroad to meet candidates in person. Pompositticut has previously hosted students from countries such as France, Austria, Hungry, Poland, Sweden, Germany, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Australia, and New Zealand. Over the years we’ve had many multiple summer international staff return to the farm since they’ve had a valued experience. Generally we host approximately 12 international staff in various speciality areas, including but not limited to Equestrian, Swimming, Ropes and TDM. It has always been a tradition at Pompositticut Farm Day Camp to welcome all cultures and have our internationals immersed in ours. Local staff and camper families, are encouraged to include our international staff in summer traditions to have shared experiences.
