Serve at FPYC
Serving at FPYC can be the best blessing of your summer. Consider the following ways God can employ you at camp by clicking into each. The information here will help you help FPYC.
Camp volunteers (teachers, nurses, cooks, crafts and directors) will receive a discount.* The person volunteering is free, and their family comes for 1/2 fee the week they are volunteering. If a couple both volunteer, their family is still only 1/2 price the week they are volunteering. This discount is extended to help defray some of the costs of serving at camp, *especially for families that really need it. This discount applies to all sessions. Please consider coming, serving, and paying full fee as an added donation toward camp. Thanks. For more info contact: [email protected]
Teachers
Along with the counselors, our teachers are the most important component of camp. This simple fact is based on the purpose of camp and the role you fulfill. The camp aims to bring young people and families into closer relationship with God. Your role is directly involved in achieving this central goal. Thank you for your heart to serve. May God bless you.
Teachers can come with no fee and their immediate family can attend that session for ½ fee if they want to take the option. When registering please note this on your forms.
When you volunteer to teach at camp, you can expect some important support. A supply room is available with many of the essential materials: crayons, markers, pencils, different types of paper, etc. We have a photocopier and a computer/printer.
The most important thing you can bring is a flexible attitude and big heart. One may never be too sure where their classroom will be or the number of students; better to overprepare.
If you'd like to teach at FPYC please contact - Brett Osborne ([email protected])
Here's a list of sessions:
* Junior Camp
* Senior Camp
* 1st Family Camp
* Worship Camp
* 2nd Family Camp
* Youth Camp
Cooks, Nurses, Crafts
Cooks - We always try to pair new cooks with those more experienced. We have all the recipes and notes for you to use in a cookbook here at camp or you may bring your own cookbook. There is a benefit offered to cooks which is a little different than teachers, nurses, etc. As a cook, you come free, and your family camps at 1/2 fee the week you serve. If you don't have family here the week you cook, you'll receive a 1/2 fee certificate that can be used at any time or year, for anyone you want.
Nurses - We actively seek EMTs, First Responders, RNs, or LPNs although the camp does not have a specific requirement for that type of care-giver. The care protocol around here is, when someone needs it - get them to the ER, then contact the parents. There are, of course, many minor cuts, bites, and scratches that need attention. You will also oversee the distribution of prescribed meds for campers. We have a complete list of duties and expectations that will be mailed out to you when you volunteer. The same "teacher" discount is offered if you need that assistance/incentive.
Crafts - If you're the kind of person who has an endless supply of creativity and flair for all things artistic, we've got the dream job for you. The crafts room at FPYC is stock full of potential. When you volunteer, a letter will be sent out giving you a complete picture of the materials on hand and the duties of the position. The same "teacher" discount is offered if you need that assistance/incentive.
Please contact Julie & Randy Peaney if you are interested in serving.
Camp Helpers
So, you want to be a camp helper...you're not alone. Oddly it's one of the most sought-after positions around FPYC. Why? Who knows! You get to toil away at the beck and call of the Caretaker doing all manner of hard labor. And for what? A free week of camp. Ok, well maybe it is worth it.
So many helper applicants have stepped forward that a set of requirements has been put in place. Here's how it works.
* First, you write a letter addressed to Julie & Randy Peaney describing why you want to be a camp helper. Let them know what week(s) you have available to serve. Get the letter in sooner rather than later as the slots are filled on a first come, first served basis.
* When you are selected, you will be notified and given a list of things to bring: work clothes, etc., and when to arrive.
Remember to get the letter in as soon as possible. Some write and turn in their letter at the close of the camp season for helper positions for the next year.
Good luck on becoming a camp helper.
