Program Staff
What will I love about Program Staff?
SO many things! You will love the opportunity you get to make deep and intentional relationships with other counselors as well as the satisfaction that comes from a role of service. You get to serve the campers in a tangible way, literally making camp run. You will be able to see and experience the difference you’re making.
What will my responsibilities be?
Camp could NOT function without our Program Staff - you make it happen! In addition to teaching classes, you will each be assigned different jobs that help keep camp running, from taking photos to organizing Lost and Found. You’ll find out your jobs at the beginning of the session. Most Program Staff will also be assigned to support the Cabin Staff by checking in on a specific cabin every day. You will get to know those girls and act like their cabin counselor - it’s so much fun!
You are doing these jobs to the Glory of God - there is no small task, so do them with JOY! There will also be times that you’ll work with the whole Program Staff to set up or make sure everything’s in place for an EP. No matter what comes your way, be open and flexible, ready to jump in wherever you’re needed.
What does this mean for my relationship with campers?
You can still have incredible relationships with campers while on Program Staff. If anything, you’ll get to impact MORE campers because you’re not focused on just one cabin of girls. Every camper you interact with in your classes, at an event, or just around camp is a girl you can connect with, appreciate, model to, and pray over. You have opportunities EVERYWHERE to get to know these girls - you just have to look for them. Remember, we’re all here to serve them and put them first in everything we do.
