1. What does event staff do?
Event staff performs the physical duties that run the camp. This includes camp
security, camp operations, and food preparation and service.
2. What does the security team
do?
The security team (Team Ezra) monitors the camp entrances and exits, watches
tents and belongings while others are gone, and facilitates the flow of the
camp by answering questions and giving guidance and directions.
3. What does the camp operations
team do?
The camp operations (Team Nehemiah) team sets up the camp as well as carries
out the day-to-day functions like emptying trash cans, fixing broken things,
and making sure equipment is functioning.
4. What does the food service staff
do?
The kitchen crew (Team Nehemiah) prepares, serves, and cleans up breakfast and
dinner. They also pre-pack lunches for each group. Typically, they kitchen crew
is up by about 5:30am, go to bed at about 11:00pm, and have a mid-day break
from about 10:30am until 4:00pm.
5. If my group does event staff,
when do we need to arrive?
If you are doing event staff, arriving on Friday afternoon or evening is ideal.
If this is not possible, you should try to arrive at your camp by about noon.
That way you will have plenty of time to get settled before dinner preparation
starts.
6. Can my group go out to a ministry site during
the day?
Your group is actually encouraged to go to a ministry site during the day. We
find that it is helpful for event staff teams to visit a ministry site because
it gives them a chance to see the purpose for which they are serving. Event
staff is exhausting so you might not want to go everyday, but you are encouraged
to go out once or twice.
