The 2013 summer staff training comes to a close tomorrow, after a 10 day intensive leadership development program preparing the 20-some team of young adults ages 18-35 to live out their faith in real ways this summer with campers at Camp DeWolfe. The training program was designed to provide the summer team with tools and resources to be equipped to be positive role models and leaders for Christ and for His campers over the next several weeks.
The staff have come together with energy and enthusiasm in a new temporary camp community, to share their gifts and strengths, in a safe and effective camp program. Following team building activities and challenges, and hard skills including life-guarding and ropes course facilitation, the summer team participated in camper welfare sessions, age development presentations, safe church trainings, emergency procedures activities and role plays, lesson planning for activity areas, christian formation planning, and lots of games and songs and activities along the way, ready for Sunday’s Explorer campers to arrive!
It is amazing to see how God brings together people to serve His ministry this summer and to reach out to campers and staff in His ways and His plans this summer! Join us as we continue to pray for Christ’s will be done through the outdoor community here at Camp DeWolfe!
