Summer Staff FAQs
Thinking about serving at camp this summer? you’ve come to the right place!
Why Should I Serve at Dunes?
Serving at camp will change your life! Dunes Bible Camp is a place to be in community with other believers who are pursuing a common goal together: spreading the love and hope of Jesus to a lost and broken world, for the glory of God!
Dunes is a place to belong, to be seen, known, and loved, and to live out your purpose in Jesus. Dunes is a place to make unforgettable memories and friendships! Dunes is a place to lay down your life for others as a servant and find it deeply rewarding.
After a summer at camp, you will have grown in important skills that will prepare you for whatever God may be calling you to next: problem-solving, flexibility, grace, courage, boldness, resourcefulness, the ability to connect with others and have fun!

When should I apply?
Today!
We accept applications through June 15th, but many positions fill up earlier than that.
What does Staff Training look like?
Most of the training will be completed online, prior to coming to camp. The morning of the first day of camp, all staff for that week will assemble for a training and team-building meeting as we get ready to welcome new campers! It is recommended that staff arrive the night before camp starts, if distance would make it difficult to be on time for morning training.
How old do I have to be?
