What is youth leadership staff?
Youth leaders will be a vital part
of day camp. They will:
- Provide
leadership for a specific group of campers throughout the week
- Build community among campers
- Lead activities as we discover what your gifts and
skills are
- Show respect towards all campers
- Be a positive role model for the campers
Eligibility
- Youth who are entering 9th grade in the fall of
2026, in high school, or graduating high school this spring are eligible
to apply.
- Youth must be available for all of day camp: June 15 - 19, from 8:30am—4:30pm. Slight exceptions may be allowed.
- Youth must be available for a training before camp
begins. The training will be Sunday, June 14 from 5 - 7 pm at
Diamond Lake Lutheran Church. If you have a conflict, we may be able to
accommodate.
Compensation
Youth will be paid $200 for their
work at day camp. We intend that the money go towards a church-related
activity—for example, towards a camp experience or youth trip. But that is not
required.
