Who can be a Camp Counselor?

 Our Camp Community is an experience of the Global Christian Family. Our staff and campers reflect the diversity of the Southern California community that we serve.

Previous youth ministry, camp ministry, or teaching experience is not required. A patient mind, open heart, and willingness to learn are far more important.

We recognize that there are many ways to grow in faith and community. All staff applicants who can live the values of a loving, supportive, and socially engaged Christian community are welcome.  Every Staff applicant must undergo a Safe Gatherings background check and training prior to working in our program.


If you are interested in becoming a counselor, please email Marlene at murbanfunk@calpacumc.org

Counselors

The heart and soul of the camp experience, Counselors are alongside campers throughout each session. Programs are set up to allow counselors with different personality types (such as introvert/extrovert) to play to their strengths; counselors can choose to specialize in various psychological, social, and physical aspects of camp.

Lead Counselors

With at least 3 (some with 20!) previous seasons of camp counseling under their belts, Lead Counselors mentor Counselors, CITs, and Chaperones. Leads also take ownership of certain parts of the program, such as Praise and Worship, Game Master, and Craft Guru.

Counselors-in-training

Any staff under 18 come into camp as CITs and receive additional coaching and spiritual development opportunities during sessions.

Chaperones

Chaperones are "den mothers and fathers" during evening and morning cabin time, supervise campers during free time and game times, and enjoy fellowship with one another.
