St. Nicholas Camp
Camp Staff Children
Ages 0-6
St. Nick’s is a *new* daytime camp being offered for the first time for the young children of the camp nurses, chaplains, and directors who aren’t old enough yet to attend our sleepover camps. The program director for St. Nick’s is a former preschool teacher who will plan age appropriate activities for these kiddos. Members of our counselor team will take turns working at St. Nick’s as OOCCs (aka out-of-cabin-counselors). Kids will live and sleep with their parents overnight.
Shrine Mont Camps depends on qualified professionals to be part of our summer staff and childcare is often a hurdle for their participation. In 2025, 2 nurses, 3 directors and 3 chaplains will utilize this offering for their young children. We’re trying out this new program with hopes to make it feasible for more awesome adults around our diocese to say “yes” to working at camp. We’re pretty excited about St. Nicholas’ Camp and the impact it will have on staffing for our 8 sleepover camps. Stay tuned for updates on this little experiment throughout the summer.
