We want you! CrossRoads depends on our volunteers, nurses and missionaries for a successful week of camp. Are you or an adult leader at your church interested in serving for a week this summer? Contact the CrossRoads office at 434.277.8465 or click here for an application and information packet. All volunteers must consent to a background check.

Volunteers

Adults ages 21 and older may serve as a weeklong summer camp volunteer. Volunteers help setup and clean up in the dining hall, assist in various camp programs such as crafts, missions adventures and canteen, and offer an encouraging smile or hug to campers and staff. They may also lend a hand with odd jobs around camp such as filing or making phone calls in the office, sorting the day’s mail, and taking pictures for the end of the week slide show. Volunteers are housed together in the House of Happiness. Volunteers arrive during the beginning of the week check-in time and receive ample orientation on the first day of camp.

Nurses

Certified nurses with a current license may serve as a summer camp nurse for a week at a time. Camp nurses administer medications, care for sick or injured campers, and are on-call throughout the day for emergencies. Nurses may also help with volunteer jobs and participate in camp activities as time allows. Nurses are housed in the Nurse’s Station, and they should arrive 30 minutes prior to the beginning of the week check-in time.

Missionaries

We invite a missionary or missionary family to serve for a week at CrossRoads. Missionaries can be currently serving, on furlough, retired, or have recently completed a short term mission trip. These volunteers share a hands-on missions presentation with campers several times during the week, participate in worship, lead a devotion for staff, visit in the cabins with campers, and help with volunteer projects as time allows. Missionaries are housed in the House of Happiness. Missionaries arrive during the beginning of the week check-in time and receive ample orientation on the first day of camp.
