CABIN LEADER
Phantom Ranch Bible Camp · Phantom Ranch Bible Camp, Southeastern Wisconsin
- Summer Staff Position
About the role
CABIN LEADER
Phantom Ranch provides 4 weeks of weeklong, overnight summer camp sessions for which we need to provide Cabin Leaders for the campers. The average Cabin Leader will do 3 of the 4 weeks. Being a Cabin Leader can be demanding so we sometimes rotate staff to work in different positions. The non-Cabin Leader's support the Cabin Leader's through prayer, encouraging notes, and other fun ways.
Each cabin group consists of two Cabin Leaders and between 8 and 14 campers. The two Cabin Leaders work together to facilitate a morning Bible study discussion around a theme, have one-to-one conversations with their campers, assist Program Leadership in following the week's schedule, and enjoy all the fun activities and games alongside their campers! The week begins on Sunday 1:30 pm and ends on Friday 6:00 pm. This is considered a 24/7 job, but downtime during the week is provided.
Our camp sessions are highly centralized, meaning the Program Leadership Team takes care of most of the scheduled activities. Cabin Leaders do not need to come up with games, Bible studies, or activities to fill the hours of the day. Cabin Leader's are equipped to fill in lulls during the day and to present the Gospel using their personal faith stories (often referred to as a testimony) and teachable moments.
Cabin Leaders will get to experience God as they work FOR Him and also WITH Him in helping campers encounter their Creator.
