CIVITAN CAMP

Volunteer Staff
Teachers, nurses, moms and dads, physicians, business leaders, college students, engineers, and more! The Civitan Camp staff comprises many people from all walks of life who come together for one purpose: to make camp GREAT! For the most part, we “grow” our staff; most of us were counselors at Civitan Camp. Occasionally, we have a space for someone new to add to our “camp family”, but not very often. What does this tell you? We LOVE what we do!
