Adult volunteers (18 years or older) serving the week of camp will receive a discount for their children and can register up to 4 campers at this lower price. All volunteers must be available for the full week of camp and meet all of our volunteer requirements to qualify for this discount.

Student and Junior volunteers (Grades 7 through 12) are welcome to serve! Spots are limited, however, and not all volunteer applicants can be accepted. Please see requirements below before applying.

We prep for CSCamps from June to July and aim to bring our theme to life with large scale sets and environmental décor. If you are skilled in carpentry, painting, counting/sorting, or arts & crafts, we would love to have you join us!

All volunteers must be attendees of Centre Street Church.
