Learning to Lead

Learning to Lead is an unforgettable, faith-building week for upper elementary students. Times of worship, small group interaction, and a variety of projects are integrated with recreation and learning to encourage the camper’s ability to lead by serving others. Campers seek to identify, question, and apply principles of leadership to their own lives.

The presentation style and active learning methods make this focused week fun and challenging. Campers work individually and in groups to put their faith and their unique talents into action.


Daily Schedule at Learning to Lead

Fresh Start Devo
To get the day started off right, we'll meet for a time of praise and worship before going out for a great day.

Group Activities and Instructions
We divide into small groups of about 15 where we discuss and learn about the week's theme led by volunteer teaching staff and counselors.

All-Camp Game
A little outdoor recreation after a morning of learning to expend some of that energy we've collected. Games range from kickball to flag-football- fun for all.

Morning Wrap-Up
Draws the morning back into focus, with more praise time and maybe even a visit from skit characters illustrating some of the day's concepts.

Free Time
Here we have a chance to take a break from the day and enjoy some snacks, go visit the campus store, or just hang out.

Personal Projects
Campers choose a creative project that they would like to work on for the week. Past projects have included art, drama, writing, speech, music, sign language and dance.

Talk Show
The talk show integrates both fun activities and lessons from the day. We often feature counselor trivia and interactive games for the campers.

Counselor Devo
We will meet with our hall counselor and the other boys or girls on the hall for one final devo and prayer time for the day before we go to bed to get lots of rest for the next day's exciting activities.
