(By submitting these, you give us permission to use them during the live streams or to re-post them on our social media. We know you’re cool with that, but it makes the legal folks happy when we say things like this. And we want them happy.)
I’m a Counselor – What the Heck Should I Be Doing?!
Your jobs are different this year. Job one is to support whatever local event your church is doing for Camp. See what your youth pastor needs you to do that week. Beyond that, if you’ve got kids from your church on your team and you want to get them together to do things for Spirit Points, a team cheer, or whatever, that’s awesome. As always, be sure you’re following local guidelines regarding COVID, and be sure you’ve got the parents’ OK.
We want churches to be as involved as they are able to, but it’s going to be up to the local youth pastors to decide what that looks like. So, talk to your pastor and see what their plans are for Camp. We’ve posted some rules and equipment lists for current and past Color Team Competitions that are easy to play at home with your youth group. Also, the big break between the Morning Thing live stream and the Big Game live stream is perfect for outreaches, local games, or other get-togethers as allowed. We’ll say it again: See what your local church is doing and support that. That’s your main job as a counselor this year.
While most of you were signed up as counselors for Camp in-person, some of you are listed as counselors for teams because your pastor bought you a shirt and name tag combo as a gift. No matter what, you’re welcome and encouraged to participate as much as you want to. Of course, you can send in flag designs and cheers for your team, too. And if you want to play in Big Game Live, we’d love to have you! Just send us an email.
I Have Questions About The Live Streams!
Yes, they are free. Yes, they will remain available after the fact. Yes, there will be a break between Big Game Live and the Evening Session. And, most importantly, yes, you can submit pictures and video during the week of Camp! Just tag @campvineyard and/or use the hashtag #campvineyard2020 on whatever social platform you post it on. We’re going to feature some of those during Morning Thing and, time permitting, other streams.
That’s it for now. Send in those flags and cheers, and sign up for Big Game Live at campvineyard.com/online!
