    Default job background
    Description
    Lead life-changing adventures while mentoring volunteer Summer Staff

    Applications for Summer 2024 open on November 13th and will be reviewed and processed on a first-come basis beginning November 27th.

    Summer Leads at Camp Bighorn get to spend two months leading adventures and speaking into the lives of campers and volunteers.

    This role is highly relational and involves a lot of technical skills.

    The first responsibility is to build relationships with our volunteer Summer Staff, which includes leading devotions from Scripture, modeling integrity, and finding creative ways to have fun together By helping these young leaders follow Jesus, Summer Leads create a healthy environment for ministry and play a big part in the spiritual growth of all the campers and guests at Camp Bighorn.

    In recognizing that everyone is gifted uniquely, Summer Leads will rotate through a variety of leadership roles.

    Opportunities are based on interests and aptitude, and may include organizing gear in the pro shop, preparing food in the kitchen, leading adventures, and more.

    Training + Eight Weeks of Camp + Post-Summer Staff Retreat

    training will begin the following morning. Summer Staff arrive on June 2nd followed by two weeks of training. Once Summer Camps come to a close, there will be a three-day celebratory staff retreat to recognize all the hard work

    Upon completion of the full term of Summer Camp, each Lead will receive a $1,000 stipend for their ten weeks of service.

    We value the time, energy, and talents that are given to support Camp Bighorn, and this stipend is a small way we can say "thank you.

    "

    In additional to receiving a $1,000 stipend, Leads are required to fundraise a minimum of $500 for the 10 weeks that they will be at Camp.

    We are confident that, with the help of the Lord, each individual will meet and surpass this minimum Past and present staff agree, it's wonderful to see God provide and bring more people together into a Summer of ministry.

    Leads are welcome to raise up to $3,000 for the Summer. Once accepted into a Summer position, an easy-to-share donation page will be set-up. Applicants younger than 18, please consider applying to serve as Summer Staff. We prefer those serving as a Lead have completed at lease one year of college or a gap-year program.

    Applicants should carry a genuine love and passion for God's people, both inside and outside of the Christian faith.

    The mission at Camp Bighorn is to embody the love of Jesus and develop Christ-honoring leaders.

    Summer Leads get to help establish this foundation for younger leaders which is crucial for sharing the hope of Jesus with our guests.

    The Summer Lead position is a very active, dynamic role, and volunteers must arrive in good physical health.

    While these activities are typical, volunteers may still be accepted even if they cannot perform one or more of these activities.

    In this case, they might be accepted and asked to serve in water-based activities instead of setting up rock climbs or working in the aerial adventure park.

    Applicants will also be required to complete a medical release form before arriving for training.
    Ideally, Summer Leads will be returning alumni who already know the ins-and-outs of Camp Bighorn.

    While prior experience at Camp Bighorn is preferred, it is not required, and individuals with similar leadership experience are strongly encouraged to apply.

    At Camp Bighorn, adventure means stepping into anything with an unknown outcome. Beyond adventure safety, all volunteers 18 years or older will be required to complete a background consent form.

    Summer Leads spend a significant amount of time with minors, and this policy helps ensure all adults serving at Camp Bighorn are legally qualified.

    2 male & 2 female)

    These individuals serve as the primary support for the Summer Staff, as an ambassador between Bighorn Staff and Summer Staff.

    They shepherd and mentor our Summer Staff in their spiritual and personal growth, equip them to serve campers well and show them the love of Christ through conversations, example, and a genuine love for those entrusted in their care.

    Summer Leads also get to facilitate adventures
    (1 male & 1 female)

    Typically for those who have had previous experience at Bighorn, these individuals help our Technical Adventure Team with all that goes into making adventures happen.

    Likely to be specialized in one area of adventure, the summer will be spent safely leading campers in overcoming and conquering their fears.

    This individual helps oversee the presentation and functionality of the camp's buildings and grounds so that campers, guests, and staff can utilize and enjoy them in a safe, concern-free manner.

    He or she will get their hands dirty and serve camp behind the scenes
    The Marketing and Office Lead helps keep us organized and serves as the link between home and a successful arrival, duration, and departure from camp They also capture great photos and videos to inspire past, present, and future campers and staff, and help keep families, donors and prayer warriors connected to what's going on at camp

    Sign the Camp Bighorn Statement of Faith, Staff Policies, and Staff Commitment Pledge.
    Provide your three references with a link to the Summer Reference Form (emailed after submitting your application).
    Prepare for a follow-up email to schedule a phone interview.

    Want to support one of these volunteers? Their service adds to a long history of ministry, and fundraising is one of the ways people in their communities can join in, too.

    Below you will find an alphabetized list of the volunteers serving this Summer along with their unique giving link.
