The Summer of 2025 began with our full summer staff team yesterday & it was jam-packed with reasons to REJOICE! Welcoming over 30 first-year staff members was our top highlight, without a doubt! As they arrived, they were greeted individually by a member of our returning staff who showed them around camp, helped them move in and introduced them to other staff. We kicked off Staff Training officially in the White Oak Room with a welcome session where we distributed staff shirts and gave an overview of what the next two weeks will look like. Staff engaged in a "teachable moments" exercise, learned how to properly lead games, filmed our summer staff video, and ended the evening lifting our voices in worship together. What a joyous way to begin our summer! Please continue to pray for our staff as they experience two vigorous weeks of training. They'll be sitting under a significant amount of teaching, soaking in as much information as they can. Pray that they will retain what is most important so that they can serve campers and guests faithfully in the name of Jesus!
