I would love for you to consider working with us during the week of our SportsLife Camp (August 10-13, MON-THURS 9am to Noon). SportsLife has a desire to work with our church to develop kid’s faith in Jesus through innovative sports and arts programs. This on-site camp is packed with creative programming and outrageous fun…and an added bonus for Miss Sara, they are very organized!!
Volunteers are an EXTREMELY IMPORTANT part of the camp experience. With this program, the volunteer is freed from the planning and prep and is encouraged to jump in with the kids and build relationships.
Here’s what we are looking for…
Volunteer “Coaches” will provide a strong, familiar presence for your assigned small group of campers.
Make connections with campers, dive in with them! Share yourself with campers. Consider leading a huddle time during a Main Event (sport or art choices)…not required!! Otherwise, it will be taken care of by the SportsLife team.
Arrive 30 minutes before camp to welcome kids and help check them in. 5-10 minutes before camp, attend the “Coaches’ Corner” where the SportsLife team will discuss the daily schedule, pray and answer any questions you may have about the day.
Attend a short training meeting the Sunday before camp.
If you have teenagers in your family or work with the youth group, we also encourage you to ask them to consider volunteering with you. This is a unique opportunity and a great way to not only encourage kids to be creative and healthy, but to develop their faith and witness to others! If interested, respond to this post or contact Sara at sara.galligan@wayzatafree.org
