Counselor Information

Counselor Training

• Counselor training is important for all counselors because it not only prepares you for your ministry to the kids that will be coming to camp, it also provides an opportunity to bond together with the other counselors to help form a team.

• The family camp which starts before the training, will be part of the training in an informal way.

• The counselor training starts right after the family camp ends on June 30th, and continues to the start of the Littles Camp beginning on July 3rd.

• You will be staying at the camp during the training time up until the Littles Camp on July 3rd, so come prepared!

• All of your meals will be provided along with accommodations.

What To Bring To Camp
