Welcome to our Conference Camp Youth Leadership Program application site! You are most likely here because you have either served as a Junior Counselor in the past or because someone learned about this program and thought you would be a great candidate.
This program is designed to create a culture of youth leadership at all of our North Texas Conference Camps. We have many different opportunities to serve depending on which grade you are currently in.
7th-8th graders, if selected, are given the opportunity to lead as Junior Counselors at the Junior High Camp they attend.
9th-10th graders, if selected, are given the opportunity to lead as Junior Counselors at our Children's Camp.
11th-12th graders, if selected, are given the opportunity to lead at our Children's or Junior High Camps as Youth Counselors.
* The cost of those attending Children's Camp as JCs or any camp as YCs will be covered by the program. Those attending as JCs at Junior High camp will still need to register and pay for camp.
Junior Counselors - As a Junior Counselor your role at camp will be to help assist in leading Family Group time and to participate in a daily reflection time with other Junior Counselors. Those 9th and 10th graders attending as Junior Counselors for Children's camp will also be given tasks such as helping to facilitate large group games and other camp-wide activities.
We are excited to add the opportunity to be a Junior Counselor at Senior High Camp to our 11th and 12th graders!
Youth Counselors - Juniors and Seniors in high school are eligible to apply to be Youth Counselors. As a Youth Counselor, you will be asked to offer guidance to our Junior Counselors during their daily reflection. You will also be given the opportunity to shadow our camp Directors and learn more about what it takes to direct a summer camp at Bridgeport. Spots for Youth Counselor are limited, and if you are not chosen to be a youth counselor, you may be given the opportunity to be a Junior Counselor at one of our camps.
