Camp is calling. This isn't just a summer job, it's a mission.


Spend your summer outdoors keeping 600 acres running. As a Facilities Associate, you'll support buildings and grounds maintenance, tackle projects across the property, and get hands-on with the work that makes everything else at camp possible.


If you're looking for something that actually matters, not just a paycheck, this is it.


What You'll Do

  • Support building and grounds maintenance staff
  • Keep workshops clean and organized
  • Help with material pickups and camper luggage
  • Collect trash and recycling and maintain campus cleanliness
  • Jump into special projects as assigned
  • Bring a positive attitude and a high-quality work ethic
  • Assist with camper arrival and departure on weekends
  • Participate in camp activities planned by the Recreation and Ministry Departments, primarily after dinner hours
  • Flex into other roles and temporary assignments as needed

What You Get

  • $7.25/hour + housing and meals included
  • Hands-on trades experience across carpentry, grounds, and general maintenance
  • Live on-site with a built-in community
  • Work ethic and practical skills that transfer to any job or trade
  • A summer that impacts lives, including your own

Important Role Details

  • This is a live-in, residential role
  • Requires active participation in a Christian ministry environment
  • Work happens outdoors in all weather
Requirements

What We're Looking For

  • A professing Christian with a personal faith
  • Interest and aptitude in mechanical or trades skills
  • Familiar with and able to use hand tools
  • Reliable, self-directed, and able to finish what you start

Why This Role Matters


You'll spend the summer learning to use your hands and fix what's broken, and those skills stay with you for life whether you go into a trade or not. You'll also be part of why camp works at all. Nobody notices the trail that's clear or the cabin that's ready, but campers feel the difference. That's a summer worth having.


Additional Requirements

  • Must be 16 years of age or older
  • Employment is contingent on background and reference checks
