Welcome! Hope some of this is helpful. I should point out that most camps I know of would look at your son more as a counsellor-in-training at his age rather than a full counsellor; but check with the camp to make sure. These are all boys' camps on Winnipesaukee, but there are many others in the area on other lakes.

Lawrence - Bear Island, Meredith; YMCA; general program
Northwoods - Rte 109, Tuftonboro; YMCA; general program
Belknap - Rte 109, Tuftonboro; YMCA; general program
Tecumseh - Moultonboro Neck Rd, Moultonboro; private; general program
Winaukee - Winaukee Rd, Moultonboro; private; competitive sports oriented
Brookwoods - Chestnut Cove, Alton; private Christian; general program
Kabeyun - Black Point, Alton; NH Audubon Soc; general program

As far as other opportunities go, there are lots of seasonal jobs in the tourist trade around here. For instance, I work for the Mt. Washington ship and we're always looking for crew members. A 16 yo would be able work in our food service area or as a deckhand on the Doris E or Sophie C. Deckhands on the Mount have to be 18.

Good luck.
