Overview:

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.

 

This is an unpaid, two-week leadership development program for graduating or rising high school seniors interested in growing in their faith and pursuing FUGE Summer Staff leadership roles in the future.

 

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.

 

Application and references are due by December 31. If you are selected to participate, you will be notified via email in February.

Responsibilities:

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 Camps 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.
