What are Camp Helpers?

What?

Camp Helpers are ages 14-18 years old. They come for a week of camp and help out in the kitchen with serving meals and doing dishes. They also get to do activities alongside counselors and get their own spiritual programming. 
Camp helpers grow extremely close and form an amazing bond between their team of helpers.

It is no cost for your teen to be a camp helper, however they do not get paid for their service either. Helpers are not staff members.
Their stay at camp includes-
Lodging
All Meals

Important notes

Beginning in summer 2025, camp helpers must be present for the entire week of their service; no checking in and out for scheduled dental appointments, sports activities or other opportunities that come up. Having camp helpers present for the entire week facilitates the smooth operation of the camp and enriches the experience for the camp helpers by allowing them to connect more strongly with their teammates. Finally, counselors have numerous important responsibilities to juggle throughout the day and signing camp helpers in and out distracts from those important responsibilities.

ALL CAMP HELPER SPOTS are FULL FOR SUMMER 2024
​WE HOPE TO SEE YOU IN 2025!
