What happens during staff training week?
Training is devoted to helping you see every aspect of responsibility you will have throughout the summer. It is essential that you are provided with a realistic picture of what kids will be like, how to care for them, and ways to respond in difficult situations. You will also receive instruction on what different age groups are like and how to work together as a team. Skills training is provided on how to effectively teach skills in creative ways. Some of the time will be dedicated to cleaning up camp and preparing it for campers. This is a wonderful time to get to know other staffers and get outside early. A good bit of time will be spent just getting spiritually ready for the challenge ahead. This includes worship, quiet times, and corporate prayer.
