Leader OrientationWho: ALL Kamp Leaders
|
*if you previously attended a Top Gun: Goose training, you may skip the July 16th training. ALL leaders must attend the Leader Orientation on July 21st.
Hello Team! I cannot wait to see you in July when we get to disciple our kids and show them what it means to carry the banner for King Jesus! I hope you are praying for our kampers and fellow Knights as Kamp is fast approaching.
Over the last few summers, the Lord really showed us the importance of unity and preparation. For this reason, we hold staff training and staff orientation. Our hope is to be able to equip and edify you in ways that prepare your heart, mind, soul, and body for 5 days of discipling kiddos at an amazingly, fun Kamp!
New-to-Kamp leaders and staff will have the opportunity to learn how to counsel their kiddos, how to plan for true discipleship moments, and what the Kids Kamp culture truly is.
This training will be on Wednesday, July 16 at 6PM, at the Heartland Church Network building in Omaha. (anyone new to Kamp MUST attend)
ALL STAFF training and orientation will be on Monday, July 21st at 10AM, at the Camp of the Good Shepherd in Louisville.
We recorded a couple of videos to introduce our Kamp Staff and to give you a few reminders and main points to focus on prior to Kamp.
We also developed a handbook, so we wouldn’t need to remember everything. When you arrive at camp, we will give you a copy. For now, go read the digital copies. It may seem like a long read, but we have seen tremendous success when our leaders read the manuals before coming to trainings and to Kamp. Organized chaos and unity of the staff are keys to keeping our Kampers safe and pointed in the right direction—Jesus!
Please take some time to watch the videos and read through the Leader and Counselor Manual!
Follow the process below to get equipped to dub our kampers into the Kingdom as Knights of the Heavenly Realm.
For King Jesus,
Captain Marvelous
