Summer camp is a unique time to help individuals draw closer to God and grow as better disciples of Jesus. YOU can be a vital part of changing lives for Jesus this summer. However, Twin Pines summer camp can't happen--and lives can't be transformed--without dedicated summer staff. From the kitchen team to lifeguards at the pool and pond to snack shop managers, cabin counselors and more, we need individuals to fill key roles and make an impact.
Many people struggle to understand how working at a camp can be considered a beneficial, life-enhancing experience. Some may see it as just "fun and games," not realizing the incredible opportunities it provides for both spiritual and personal growth. But working at a summer camp is so much more--it's a chance to help others grow in their relationship with Jesus, guiding them to live out His teachings and become more like Him. Every role--whether counseling, preparing meals or running activities--plays a vital part in moving people's lives closer to Jesus while also shaping your own.
For staff members, being part of the summer ministry offers numerous benefits that extend far beyond camp. It looks great on a resume, showing potential employers your commitment, responsibility and ability to make a difference. You'll develop valuable skills like leadership, teamwork, communication, problem-solving and adaptability--qualities essential in any career. Plus, the experience helps you grow personally, spiritually and professionally, equipping you for future opportunities while building lifelong friendships, networks and connections.
