Session Staff positions – Frontier Camp offers the ability to serve for at least 5 weeks of camp, or roughly half the summer. There are 2 Sessions from which to choose, offering the flexibility in your summer schedule to also take summer classes or go on mission or family trips. You can also apply to work both Sessions, if desired. Staff (except for Work Crew) will be required to attend Staff Training Week(s) prior to the first camp week of your Session. For more information regarding our camp Sessions, please email Dusty Stone at summerstaff@frontiercamp.org.
Work Crew positions – We offer 3-Week Work Terms. Work Crew members do not attend Staff Training Weeks. They will receive their training during their work term.
Staff Trainings

Senior Staff Training will be the week prior to Staff Week 1. (Some or all of this training will be done online before arrival at camp.)
