Logistics Assistants are seasonal positions available during Chewonki’s summer season. Logistics Assistants (LA) work as members of a team to support participants and staff in Chewonki’s summer programs. LAs work with staff and participants through the preparation of food and equipment, transportation to and from the field, facilitating resupplies, and post-trip cleanup. LAs may also be assigned to other tasks as needed to support all of Chewonki’s summer programs.
Responsibilities are always varied and at times unpredictable for the LAs. A day at work can consist of anything from driving a trip of participants into the North Maine Woods to repairing broken tents and canoes, in addition to working alongside other staff and participants as they learn how to prepare for and wrap up from a trip.
