LIFE CHANGING CAMPS

Student Leader Apprentice

The FUGE Student Leader Apprentice (SLA) program is a two-week experience for students who love camp and want to gain hands-on leadership experience in a camp environment. Students go behind the scenes at FUGE and learn valuable leadership skills within the camp ministry setting. SLA is designed for students who are about to enter or who have just completed their senior year in high school.

During the first week of the program, students will participate in a variety of experiences including a personality and leadership assessment, ministry sites, recreation, Bible study, development of leadership skills, prayer experiences, worship, etc. During the second week, students will be apprenticed to a FUGE staffer and will gain hands-on camp experience. Students will serve in a variety of roles assisting the overall camp program. The apprentice week will give students a first-hand look at camp ministry as well as prepare them for future leadership roles.

In my SLA experience, I hoped to get out a stronger relationship with Christ, see if I really want to work at camp, and meet new friends. The program exceeded my expectations. I am closer to the Lord than ever before, I will definitely apply to work at FUGE, and I met lifelong friends.
