Each day is packed with exciting activities for the campers to enjoy. Activities vary from nature, arts & crafts, recreation, pioneering, ropes course, swimming and boating. These are high energy programs, often themed events, filled with songs, skits, recreation, arts & crafts and fun! The campers day starts with devotions and ends with devotions in their cabin groups. All staff are expected to set an example and actively participate in the planned activities.
Camp Wonderland needs a staff that loves children and has a desire to share Christ’s love with others. Camp Wonderland is located in Sharon, Massachusetts, just 30 miles south of Boston on beautiful Lake Massapoag. There is a lounge available for staff during their free time, internet access, swimming and boating. Wonderland has a tradition of having staff return summer after summer because camp makes such an impact on their lives.[spacer][clear] [clear][/span5][span7][spacer][clear]
