What type of training does your staff receive? 


85% of our staff have been at Camp Chestermere before; many as campers in years previous, many as part of the CLTD (Christian Leadership Training & Discipleship) program, and many more as returning staff. So for most of them, training is a long term immersion in Chestermere's values of being a place to belong; where God's love is shown through respect, caring and providing a safe place of learning and growth.

Pre-Camp training is provided for all staff to brush up their cabin leading & teaching skills. It also ensures that everyone is working towards the same goals of supporting every child as a valued member of their cabin, ensuring they have a successful week at camp. Camp Chestermere does a Criminal Record and Position of Trust check on all employees.
