That Thing

06/05/2023

Do you have a week available to serve Jesus this summer? We need a few more people to help us fill the gaps for our weeks of 300+ campers. June 18-23 and June 25-30 we need you! Must be 18 and over in most cases. DM me or call 574-376-2077. What would you do? Depending on your skills and interests, things like tech help in the auditorium, working the Beach House camp store, helping with harnesses and helmets at our ropes activities, helping set up & supervise free time activities, basic office work (greeting visitors & answering phones), aquatic observing (not lifeguarding, just an extra set of eyes at the waterfront to help the lifeguards) are where we need help for these very large groups.

Saturday morning has our summer staff entering Day 5 of orientation & training. Today, they will get ropes training on SkyHigh and The Park. Our facility team made progress on the pier yesterday. The Epworth Forest property owners association will have their annual meeting this morning in The Beach House. Our worship band for That Thing will be here to rehearsal and plan for the week of camp. It’s a beautiful day and we praise God for His blesssings.

Being part of a team, serving Jesus, making new connections, impacting our world…for many years there have been many people who have come and been a part of the all the good that happens here. We still need people to help us be able to make this summer the best it can be. We have one week serves, two week or 4 week serves or whole summer serves to fill. Positions in tech (sound, pro presenter, lights & stage), waterfront (inflatables, swim, kayaks, paddle boards & corcls), adventure (ropes, archery tag, slip n slide, & games), and even running the camp store (The Beach House).

Due to an incredible shortage of applicants, we are experiencing a staff shortage at Camp Adventure and Epworth Forest. When we look at camp schedules and know that if we don’t get more staff and volunteers in, we will have to start eliminating activities that our campers love. Make your summer matter in a big way, give a week or more to our campers. Message us here or call us at (574) 377-3199.
