We wouldn’t be able to do what we do without an amazing team of dedicated volunteers!
All CYC camps and events are predominantly staffed by an incredibly passionate and dedicated group of volunteers, who are excited about spending a week of camp with your young person or family. Our volunteers will lead a group of campers throughout the week, getting to know them well and acting as role models for the young people on camp. Our teams typically operate at a 1:4 ratio with campers, allowing for both effective supervision and the opportunity to build impactful relationships.
Volunteers all come from local church communities and apply directly to our CYC staff team, who will ensure that their application aligns with our mission and values. All our leaders provide multiple references, engage in relevant training including Child Safety and role-specific training prior to camp, and are supervised by one of our staff team members who will be onsite at all times.
Our camp programs look different depending on the camp and the location. From cool themes and tailored games, to site activities, like the flying fox or archery, there is something for everyone to enjoy at each camp.
Some kids love the chance to play board games during free time or hang out at the Gaga pit. Each day also includes a session with time for Christian input. Mealtimes at camp are always a great place for conversation and wider connection.
The daily sessions on teen camp are designed to allow campers to understand and engage with faith content. For campers who are used to Christian content, there are opportunities to go deeper in their faith and develop a personal relationship with Jesus through worship and prayer. For campers who haven’t heard about Christianity, we provide approachable and engaging information and conversation.
