YEAR 1   Pre-Leadership Development Training (age 15 or completed 9th grade)     July 11-24
Spend time at CW exploring the qualities of a servant leader and then put those qualities to test on a 3-day outtrip along the Au Sable River. Small group discussion will focus on leadership and how a growing faith can guide you through life's challenges. Will you rise to the challenge and embark on the leadership track at Camp Westminster? Come and see what God has in store for you.

Comments from last year's PLDT participants:
"On an outtrip... it is a model for real life!"
"What I really liked is that A LOT happens in a short time!"
"The PLDT outtrip teaches you how to deal with life and make it work with limited resources- outside the safety net of camp!" 

YEAR  2   Leadership Development Training (ages 16-17 or completed 10-12th grades)    August 1-14
NOTE: Campers may register for this camp even if they have not attended YEAR 1.
For over 13 years, Camp Westminster's Leadership Development Training has given youth invaluable skills for the future. If you desire life challenge, growth in your faith, responsibility and hard work, this is for you. Learn how to work with children and acquire community-building techniques. Conquer the Initiatives and High Ropes Courses and embark on a wilderness trip hiking and paddling the Manistee River. Cover skills such as packing, map reading, cooking, paddling, tent setup and more.  Above all, be challenged to deeper faith exploration! Go home with new friends you'll keep in touch with for a lifetime (just ask some of our alumni...) Guided by a dedicated staff chosen for their example as servant leaders, they will push you to strengthen the abilities God gave you.

YEAR 3    Skills Development (ages 16-18 or completed 11-12th grades)     June 20- July 3
Love to sail? Live to climb? Want to know more about trees, water and God's creatures? Eager to lead an outtrip on a river or on the trail? Gifted in the creative arts? Spend 2 weeks working on 2 of these skills either for fun or as part of the leadership track on the way to a role as a camp counselor. Camp Westminster needs leaders who can make a nature hike fun, facilitate young climbers and instruct sailors. (This session can be in addition to Leadership Development Training or on its own.)

Westminster Service Corps (ages 16-18)     I July 11-24    II July 25-31
Is God calling you to service this summer? Experience CW behind the scenes! WSC is designed to maximize your servant leadership potential! Spend about 4-6 hours each day working on special projects around camp. Assist with activity preparation, beautification projects, the Recycling Center, and more! Be ready to work hard and do what it takes to make camp fun for the campers! But all work and no play doesn't fulfill God's plan...enjoy crazy times, silly fun and deep discussions too, with staff who are here for you. (Note: This time can count toward community service hours needed for your school, etc. Just ask- we'll help with the paperwork!)
