Staff Training

MANDATORY TRAINING JUNE 28 - July 4 2026

As a camp who is accredited by the Association des camps du Quebec, we are required to provide 60 hours of training to most of our staff positions. *Some positions or applicants may require less training.

We’re constantly updating the way we do staff training to meet the needs of staff and campers. Our staff training is our way of equipping and preparing our staff for the ministry work that lies ahead of them. Our training includes at-home readings, group sessions at camp, and service components in various areas of camp. During these times, we will be going deeper into what it means to be an ambassador for Christ and what that looks like in the camp context. We will have sessions that focus on how to share the Gospel with children, how to be intentional when interacting with campers and peers, and how to lead small groups. Other topics will include anxiety, child abuse prevention, and practical skills for being a FL staff member. Although all staff are welcome to join our staff training, this will be required for some positions, and staff members at the discretion of the Director.

Staff Applications

To apply for a staff position at Frontier Lodge, an application form must be completed online. Candidates will be asked a series of questions in order for the FL Staff to better understand each individual. References must be provided. An interview, either in person, by phone, or video, may be requested – please be prepared with questions to ask the FL Staff during this step. With the funds available to us, we compensate staff based training, experience, age, and position.

Interviews

An interview is required for all applicants who desire to be a part of the Frontier Lodge Summer Team. As space and needs are limited, only the most suitable applicants will be interviewed and hired.
