The expectation of an employee at camp, is a desire to serve. Camp is all about the campers, therefore it must be the desire of a camp employee to serve those campers in a Christlike way. They must also recognize the need for a code of conduct that is above reproach both during the camp sessions as well as in public interactions. 

Wabanna seeks to employ those who are actively engaged in a local church and who are seeking to grow in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18).

The full-time staff and summer leadership team is committed to training, teaching, and instructing in the truth of God’s word, and helping each of our employees to apply that knowledge to their daily life. We believe that camp is the perfect place to provide opportunity for growth in loving service, communication of truth, and deepening conviction of the sufficiency of the Word of God.

Our prayer is that by working in the camp environment, convictions already form in the truth of God’s word will be cemented, that new habits and convictions will form from being instructed in the Word of God, and that by growing in this truth, the desire to serve others, to see them grow in Christlikeness, and to make known the Gospel of Jesus Christ will only increase in the heart of each staff member to the glory of God.

Yes, all of the staff at Camp Wabanna will be provided with lodging for the duration of the summer, this is to serve our staff and provide a space apart from the every day life of the employee to be intentional in forming strong convictions, community, and FUN!
