what is the team assistant program?

The Team Assistant program allows each church group to bring their best high school juniors, seniors, or even college students to camp. Team Assistants (TAs) count toward the required adult ratio (1:5), even if they are under the age of 18. Team Assistants are housed with your church group like all other adults, and they help provide supervision for your group. As an added bonus, TAs get a behind-the-scenes opportunity to partner with a CentriKid staffer for the week, helping out at Recreation, Bible Study, Track Times, and even the possibility to help with Production! Please identify any Team Assistants on your participant form, submitted 2 weeks prior to camp.

We are happy to offer a $100 discount* / spot for participants in the Team Assistant program. If you would like to add a Team Assistant to your existing registration, or if you are already planning to bring TAs, call our customer service team to have this discount applied to your account. 877-CAMP-123.

*High school or college students who attend camp but do not plan to participate in the TA program (assisting during Recreation, Bible Study, and Track Times) are not eligible for the discount. Younger students are also not eligible. Students must be at least rising high school juniors to participate and receive the discount.

[Note: This discount will not be applied to your account automatically. Please call to take advantage of this special pricing.]

responsibilities

TAs will help supervise your group in housing areas and at meals. They will also work alongside the CentriKid staff and help out with Recreation, Bible Study, and Track Times. In the evenings, TAs will sit with your group during Worship and Church Group Time, with the possibility to help out in production elements.

benefits for your group

Bringing TAs will allow you to use young adults from your own church to help minister to your kids. This is a great way to get students from your church involved, and it helps cultivate healthy relationships within your congregation.

WHAT WILL I DO?

As a Team Assistant, you will get hands-on experience at CentriKid! You will shadow a staffer and help them out in different aspects of the day while getting to know the campers and help them grow in their walk with the Lord.

Some things you will do as a TA are help lead kids to different locations around campus, aid in different Bible Study and Track Time activities, and help manage campers as you play Recreation games!

WHO WILL I MEET?

Your main point of contact will be the amazing Recreation Director! They will meet with you on the first night of camp to explain your role and assignments. You will also get to meet some incredible CentriKid staffers and awesome campers!

WHAT WILL I GAIN?

You will gain practical ministry experience, develop relationships with campers from your church, and many memories from the best week of your summer!

WHY SHOULD I?

We challenge you to make every moment count with the campers andstaff at CentriKid. We know that kids benefit from having caring leaders to invest in their lives, so being a TA opens the door for you to do that very thing! Serving as a Team Assistant has potential to make a life-long impact on a camper and their walk with the Lord!

Also, we may be biased, but CentriKid is the best place to be! That’s why you should join the fun!


This program is an amazing opportunity to grow as a Christian and also grow with your church group and other children. You get to go home and continue building that relationship.

The opportunity to serve as a TA was one step closer to walking full circle with CentriKid. As a child, camp was always the highlight of my year! As soon as I stepped into the TA role and saw the family on the CentriKid Staff Team around me, I knew I wanted to be part of it one day. I applied as soon as I was eligible, and really had the chance to go full circle with CentriKid – camper, TA, and staffer.

It was amazing! God touched my heart in many ways this week of camp. I felt loved, and I felt God’s calling into children’s ministry! Working with all the other staffers was amazing.
Henry SFormer Team Assistant

CentriKid Camps has always been special to me because, as a kid,  it truly is what planted the seed that led me to salvation. I had felt the Lord leading me to Children’s Ministry for a while but didn’t know what that looked like. So when I heard about the opportunity to be a TA at CK, I asked my leader to sign me up. And I don’t regret a thing! It truly was amazing!
