You & Me Retreat Staff

This weekend retreat requires approximately 10-13 individuals who are friendly, trustworthy, dedicated, and caring to donate three days of their time to being on staff. What you get in return is priceless. Are you one of them? 

Volunteers with the following attributes will be considered for staff positions:

• Have previously volunteered at Camp Goodtimes

• Can change gears easily and wear many different hats (counselor, muscle, A&C, lead songs, etc.)

• Have skills that apply to a large range of ages

• Can work well with and in the presence of parents

• Have exemplified these and other positive qualities while at Camp Goodtimes

The participants of this camp are families who have been impacted by childhood cancer. Programming is aimed at children ages 7-17 and their parents. There will be one parent and one child from each family. Families will share cabins or reside in a private room. Families will be grouped into cabin groups.
