We hire a wide range of fun-loving, servant-minded, and hard-working Christians from a variety of backgrounds, with a strong desire to provide outstanding guest and camper experiences. We seek staff who are committed to helping make the world a better place by changing lives. The more unique staff we have for summer – the better, as we serve a fun assortment of campers that can’t wait to connect with someone who helps them feel right at home.

A camp role will be the hardest but best job you will ever have! Here’s what summer staff have to say:

“Camp feels 100 miles away but is always right in your heart no matter where you go. Camp pours everything into you. They love you, love God, love camp. You’re encouraged to grow in your faith, as a person, being the person God meant you to be, being yourself, going crazy during B Field games or flashlight tag, getting out of your comfort zone – all of those joys are bundled into summer. Last summer was the best of my life. I’m counting down the days till camp.” - A. Burns

“Working with the kids is truly incredible!” - Cookie G.

“I grew so much as a person and being at camp all summer helped me center myself. The environment is so positive and loving!” - Sophie K.

“Camp Henry is more than just a job - it’s a family. Be part of our family…” - Danny J.

“Summer on staff was the best summer of my life! Camp is my favorite place and I love playing a role in the growth and shaping of campers.” - Alexis L.

“My favorite thing about working at camp is the kids. Each and every one will have a story to tell you. For a lot of these kids, camp is their favorite place ever. Sometimes camp gets challenging but the support network of staff and leadership staff is amazing.” - Matt H.

“Camp Henry is the best community I’ve ever been a part of!” - Sarah G.

Our summer season begins with Staff Training on Sunday, June 1st, 2025 and the summer schedule continues until Saturday, August 16, 2025.*

*Junior Staff & Day Camp Staff often sign up for a summer session or two that last a few weeks of the summer.

Those interested in becoming a Lifeguard should look for a local American Red Cross Lifeguard Certification class. We may have a class at camp, but are unsure at this time, so your best option at the moment is to find a class locally.

We know it’s a huge commitment to spend a summer at camp pouring into the lives of campers – but that it’s worth it. We never want finances to be a barrier for staff; and that’s where our Summer Staff Award comes in.

Summer staff who are in college, a trade school, or within 3 years of their graduation with remaining student loans and who work the entire summer season at camp are welcome to apply for an award. Awards typically range from $500 - $1000.
