2025 specialty weeks INfo
Specialties I: Outdoor Sports & Craft Camps (June 22-27)
Specialties II: Woodworking, Sports & Cooking Camps (July 13-18)

Faculty and Jr. Faculty for Specialties I and Specialties II:

Thank you so much for choosing to spend a week of your summer serving at Wonder Valley Christian Camp. We have a busy schedule planned, and I am looking forward to working with all of you.

​

Everything I address here will pertain to both Specialties Weeks. If you have questions about the specific week you are working, feel free to get in touch with me.

​

All specialties for both weeks are full or nearly full!

We will again be in the Macedonia dorm, in the "meadow" property at Wonder Valley. â€‹

Prior to Sunday, please review the Camp Rules, and dress code in the What To Bring section.

​

SUNDAY: 

There will be a Faculty meeting at  3:00 on the Sunday of each week. Please arrive on time, as I will have even more details to go over before the campers arrive at 4:00 to begin their check-in process.

​

On Sunday, each camper will be given a water bottle, a folder with their schedule, memory work, daily devotion sheets, an ink pen and a string backpack to keep these things organized.  Faculty will also receive a water bottle, string backpack and the final schedule. If you submitted your Faculty Screening Form before May 11, you will also get a free camp t-shirt. (If you have not submitted your screening form please use the link above to do it as soon as possible.)

 

SCHEDULE: 

I have linked to the  Preliminary Schedule (pdf) here, but I will hand out the final schedule when you arrive at camp, as there are sometimes last-minute adjustments, and your final schedule will also include the schedule for recreation. 

​

TEACHING MATERIALS: 

Each morning, campers will complete the first page of that day's devotion sheet for the  Morning Devotions(pdf)   on their own. Later in the morning, faculty will use the Leader Guide on the next page to facilitate discussion over that material during Morning Discussion. The campers in this group will be your Specialty. Campers earn points for completed devotion sheets, so this is a great time to help kids who may have trouble getting it finished on their own.

Just before bed time during Evening Discussion time, faculty will use the
 Evening Discussion Notes (pdf) to lead Bible study in the dorms to finish up the day. You can work together to decide if you want to do this by dorm room, or combine a couple rooms and rotate discussion leaders each night. If you have access to a printer, please print off the Morning Devotions and Evening Discussion notes prior to arriving at camp, so you are prepared and have paper copies for leading discussions. I will have a few couple extra copies, but it is best if leaders can bring some of their own.
​

​

2025 THEME: 

Our theme this year is "From Beginning to Ending" (Isaiah 40:28). In some ways our theme for the last few years has been similar as I feel strongly about teaching the very basics of the Christian faith to our campers - many who are non-church kids and first time campers. My goal in selecting the study material and the  worship music is help campers learn who God is,  and how to read His Word to clearly understand His Creation, our Fall, His plan for Redemption and our ultimate Restoration. 

Thanks again for devoting your time and talents to serving the campers. Let me know if you have any questions,

​

​

For His Kingdom,

Tracy Weaver
