Health
and Safety Staff
Health Supervisors will be available each week of camp to assist in keeping
our campers and staff healthy and safe. As a parent/guardian you are the greatest
source of information about your child’s health, therefore at registration,
we need your assistance in the completion of health forms and the management
of medications.
Staff
Credentials
It is important for you to know that each staff member completed an application,
had four individual personal references including parent/guardian, Minister/Sunday
School teacher, employer/teacher and character reference. In addition, each
staff member successfully interviewed, passed a state police background check
and was selected by the Leadership Team.
Staff
Training
Summer camp staff receive intense and comprehensive training including but
not limited to: safety/accident
prevention, first aid/emergency procedures, cardiopulmonary resuscitation,
and methods and content of our educational goals and camp activities.
Counselor-in-Training
(CIT) Opportunity
If you have a youth 15 years old, who is an experienced camper, loves camp
and wants to learn Christian leadership skills, consider the Counselor-in-Training
(CIT) program. Each CIT must enlist for at least 4 weeks of summer camp. This
is wonderful preparation for a possible future as a paid summer camp counselor.
The $100.00/week fee for CIT’s covers their food/food service costs.
