Who can volunteer at Day Camp?
Camp staff is made up of New Covenant Bible Church Children’s Ministry staff along with volunteers from our church body. Camp staff are adults and students who have completed an application, reference, and background check process. If you have completed 5th grade, you can register online to volunteer at Day Camp!
How do I know where I’m serving?
Volunteer spots are limited and particular requested roles cannot be guaranteed. Individual roles will be assigned in late May once we have a better idea of how many campers we will have.
Can I serve both sessions?
Maybe. Maybe not. Because of the great interest in serving at Camp, some volunteers are accepted for only one session of Camp. Feel free to let us know if you are available and we will see what we can do!
What do I bring?
Please bring a pillow, sleeping bag/blanket, and towel. Put your name and phone number on all your items!
