Camp Counselors are essential leaders who help create an atmosphere where students can encounter Jesus and be transformed. This program is for adults who are passionately pursuing Jesus and want to disciple the next generation. Camp counselors will:

• Serve as a “camp mom” or “camp dad” for their cabin group, helping create a safe and welcoming environment.
• Supervise & lead their cabin group through scheduled activities throughout the camp event.
• Commit to pray for & provide a spiritual covering for their campers.
• Lead their cabin group in daily devotions, intentional conversations, & prayer.
• Model Christ-like behavior & support staff in enforcing camp rules and guidelines.
• Assist staff with identifying & avoiding potential safety concerns.

How are counselors selected?

Applying does not guarantee a place in the program. Counselors are not primarily considered on a first-come, first-served basis. Applications are prayerfully reviewed, considering many factors such as volunteer history, references, & leadership’s discernment of God’s guidance. All volunteers are required to complete a background check through the ministry and provide references. There are limited spots available for each week of camp.
