TOGETHER EVERYONE ACHIEVES MORE

YOU MIGHT BE A GREAT FIT IF…
- You’ve spent at least one summer on staff at Lake Ann Camp
- You want to grow spiritually through hard, meaningful work
- You’re ready to take on adult responsibilities and be treated accordingly
- You want practical skills alongside your faith development

WHAT YOU'LL DO
TEAM members support the full operation of the camp so that every camper and guest has an excellent experience.
Responsibilities include:
CHOOSE AN AREA OF FOCUS
TEAM interns can opt to hone in on a specific area of service
- Red Canoe: Work as an associate — running the register, making drinks, scooping ice cream, preparing food, and keeping the store stocked.
- Kitchen: Work alongside our kitchen staff to prepare and serve meals for campers, retreat guests, and staff. Learn food service operations in a high-volume ministry environment.
- Media: Assist with media capture, run audio/visual for chapel sessions, and learn how to communicate in a ministry-world.
Focus areas are where you will spend a portion of your time, not every moment of your internship.
