Interested in Joining our Staff team?<\/h1>\n

At Cedarwood Camp and Retreat Centre we have a wonderful group of staff both year round and during the summer who help our Cedarwood facility run! From food services, to administrators, cabin leaders, program staff, maintenance, hosts, and more \u2013 our team works together to serve our campers and guests by looking after a broad range of duties and need.<\/p>\n

Serving at Cedarwood will give you opportunities to share your faith, serve God and talk about the life-giving good news of Jesus, while also living in an authentic grace-filled Christian community that sees the importance of accountability, mentorship and having fun together.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our staff live on site at Cedarwood in the lodge or private cabins spaced out around our property.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

What do you look for in a potential Summer Team member?<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

    \n
  • Have a willingness to serve and be directed by others. Be willing to adapt to new situations and responsibilities. Because of the nature of this ministry any of us may be required to help in areas and jobs for which we were not hired. We all serve Jesus anywhere and in any way we can.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • We’d like to see general evidence of your ability to handle the job requirements and general evidence of your ability to live and work in a close-knit community. Good physical health is essential as the pace of summer camp is demanding. Cedarwood is an intense ministry which also requires emotional health and strength.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

    Are there any qualifications needed to be a Summer Team member?<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \n
    • Cedarwood is a faith-based organization, so a successful candidate must be able to affirm and support our organization\u2019s Statement of Faith and Community Covenant, and be committed to our summer mission. (These documents are made available during the interview and hiring process)<\/span><\/li>\n
    • We’d like to see evidence of a personal relationship of faith in Jesus Christ. We recognise that this relationship entails Christ’s lordship in every area of your life.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      Are summer camp positions paid?<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      We ask that you have a willingness to raise financial and prayer support. Staff honorariums or salaries are raised through donation income. Each summer staff person is asked to submit a list of potential supporters and to send updates to those people about their summer ministry work. More information about this will be made available during the interview process.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      What is the timeline for working as a summer team member?<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      Our summer begins with a full week of staff training. We then have 7 weeks of <\/span>summer camp and a short debrief time<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      Pre-season work is available and begins at the beginning of May. During our pre-season our summer team staff serves by preparing the site for summer as well as hosting rental groups, cleaning the lodge, helping in the kitchen or on maintenance.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      Can you work for only part of the summer?<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      In an effort to build community, a good team dynamic, and continuity in our programming we ask that our summer team join us for the full summer of ministry. If there are dates you know of that would make it difficult to join us for the whole summer please let the Director know. Time off for family events like weddings and other activities can be made available but those dates need to be discussed prior to the summer team training week for scheduling purposes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      If you are interested in serving with Cedarwood as a part of our summer team but cannot commit to the full 8 weeks please contact us to talk about what options are available to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

      What does Summer Team training look like?<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      Summer team training includes sessions on how to share the gospel, how to rightly relate to campers, and important safety and emergency procedures. We begin each morning with worship singing and a teaching time from a pastor. The day then continues with teaching sessions, opportunities to prepare skills and activities, rehearsals for skits and songs and other kinds of prep work. Each summer team member is given a chance to be involved in our evening program in a variety of areas like leading worship, acting in comedy skits, leading silly songs, or giving the talk on that day’s topic. In the evenings there is opportunity for our community to be built including bonfires, girls and guys hangouts, board games, and other time spent together.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/section>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":80,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1629","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yfc.ca\/camp-cedarwood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1629","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yfc.ca\/camp-cedarwood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yfc.ca\/camp-cedarwood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yfc.ca\/camp-cedarwood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/80"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yfc.ca\/camp-cedarwood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1629"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/yfc.ca\/camp-cedarwood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1629\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yfc.ca\/camp-cedarwood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1629"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
