What else should I know about working at Camp Westminster on Higgins Lake?
Our
mission is to allow every visitor to Camp
Westminster to experience God's love in a fun, outdoor, Christian
community!
Our
summer camp program is for children and youth ages 7-17 years. We place campers
into 3 age groups (7-11 years, 12-14 years and 15-17 years) and provide them
with a unique program that is age-appropriate and relevant to the camper's
place in life. As a counselor, your job is to remain with your campers or
another assigned group at all times, providing mature guidance, a sense of
humor, and leadership. This job will make you very well-rounded -- counselors do a
little bit of everything! Teach skills (soccer/football, archery, sailing, arts
and crafts, games); lead songs, worship and Bible study times; help campers
with daily capers (chores); lifeguard (if applicable) and clean the camp
between sessions. Yes, it is a hard job, but one that you'll never forget! Many
previous staff have changed their career choices after working at Camp
Westminster for a summer or more.
All positions are compensated with a weekly,
salaried rate with all housing and food costs covered, while on the job. All staff report to
the Executive Director and the Camp Committee of Westminster Church of Detroit.
We are a Christian camp that accepts people for who they are and where they are
in their individual faith journeys.I want to apply now.
Remember, the terrific staff members at Camp
Westminster are one of the big reasons so many campers love to return year
after year! Staff are recruited from local churches, area colleges, camp
alumni, and from around the world. Through an intensive staff training, this
diverse group of individuals bonds and grows together to form a warm and
welcoming community to any camper who comes to CW. We look for: enthusiasm; a strong work ethic; people who take
initiative; individuals who LOVE children and youth; and someone who desires to
know God better and grow in their faith.
