Barnabas Rowing Club is a short term, non-paid, summer opportunity for High School students to “pull together” in ministry. Each Club member will join seven others serving on the work crew.
Leadership and personal development will be an integral part of this program. Training will involve a variety of sessions and activities.
Areas of ministry include:
- Kitchen: washing dishes, assisting in preparing food, setting tables, and clearing tables.
- Childcare: involved with early childhood care, ages 0 to 2 years
- Cleaning: keeping the public bathrooms and showers cleaned and stocked with paper products
- Assisting summer staff in their departments on a rotational basis such as General Store, waterfront, program, and maintenance
- Contributing and assisting in the summer staff community life
Want a chance to have fun, meet new people, and be involved in ministry? Are you 14 years old or older? Love Christ and want to serve? Are you energetic and enthusiastic? If so, come be part of the Rowing Club!
