Apply for Outdoor Education Per Day Staff

Camp Roger’s ministry was founded on the same principles that we live by today. Our mission is to encounter and celebrate God’s love for his children through relationships and experiences in Creation. It rings loud and clear through the echoes of laughter on the trails, the splash of swimmers at Little Bostwick or Lake Gordon, and sweet voices singing together in praise to God. Through summer overnight camp and day camp, we have the opportunity to impact the lives of over 2,000 kids each year with the love of God in a traditional camp setting. Through environmental education classes, team-building activities, and Get Outside (GO) Days, our outdoor education team teaches over 11,000 traditional, private, and homeschooled students each year. Both campuses offer a variety of options for daytime or overnight rental facilities whether for a school group, church youth group, family reunion, or business retreat. Our newest adventure is The Acorn Resale Shop in Rockford, Michigan. This volunteer-staffed retail store uses proceeds from the sale of donated goods to provide affordable and accessible ways for kids to be able to attend camp.

Camp Roger's Faith Statement:

At Camp Roger, we believe that Christians share the following core beliefs and convictions: 1. First, that there is one true God who is made known to his creation through the person of the Trinity: The Father who created us, Jesus Christ the Son who died for us, and the Holy Spirit who guides us.

2. Second, that the Bible is the true and inspired Word of God, revealing God’s character and redemptive story of his creation.

3. Third, that God’s worldwide church, which includes all Christians, has been called and equipped to co-labor with Christ in building the kingdom on earth.

As a diverse group of Christians, we seek to live in order to find our center in Christ for the purpose of serving God together. We commit to working in the same direction together, orienting ourselves toward Christ in all things.
