STAFF MANUAL
AND
POLICIES
This manual proposes to set forth the
principles on which and the purposes for which
Camp Lor-Ray
was established in an effort to insure that those principles and purposes will
be met.
It also proposes to outline in some detail
the several positions and “job descriptions” that are essential to the smooth
operation of our camp. ALL STAFF MEMBERS SHOULD BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THIS
MANUAL.
It also sets down the policies under which
Camp Lor-Ray will be run in order to insure the utmost safety of each and
every camper and staff person.
PRINCIPLES AND PURPOSE
“These
commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on
your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along
the road, when you lie down and when you get up. “ (Deuteronomy 6, 6-7)
By these words recorded in Deuteronomy 6,
6-7, we understand that God wants us to guide our children every day and in
every way. It is to this end that the churches of the
Wisconsin
and Evangelical Lutheran Synods in the area have established and operate Camp
Lor Ray Kids Camp. Therefore, the purpose of Camp Lor-Ray Kids Camp is to give
the children of the Wisconsin and Evangelical Lutheran Synod churches in our
area an opportunity for Bible study, Christian fellowship and fun with
Lutheran Christians who believe as they do.
PERSONNEL
In keeping with the principles and purpose
of Camp Lor-Ray, it follows that all staff members will at all times be of
Christian character and set forth a God-pleasing example. Camp positions will
be filled by members of the
Wisconsin
or Evangelical Lutheran Synods.
Since every staff member comes into contact
with the camper, it would be well for each one to carefully and prayerfully
read the section entitled: GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR COUNSELORS AT CAMP LOR-RAY,
which appears further along in this manual.

A LITTLE ABOUT THE
CHILDREN WE WILL SERVE
Every child is different. They have
different personalities, different home lives, different life experiences. So,
trying to describe the type of children we serve can be difficult to say the
least. As a Counselor, you will get to know “your kids” very well each week.
Very early you will learn their personality and their personal traits. The
following is going to be a general description of children in the age groups
that we will serve at our camp.
First of all, the children we serve will be
Christian children. They are “holy” but not “perfect.” They have a new man who
loves God’s Word and loves to follow His commands, and they have an “old Adam”
who looks for every opportunity to sin and go contrary to what God expects and
demands. The children will challenge, and they will sometimes defy you and the
spiritual leaders of the Camp. Sometimes, they will do it innocently.
Sometimes, they will do it defiantly. Their spiritual sanctification will
differ from child to child. Our goal is to use both law and gospel to condemn,
forgive, encourage, and go on. They will also respond to the Word of God, the
preaching of Law and Gospel. The Law condemns us and shows us our sins, and
our errors. That is important for our Christian life. But then comes the
Gospel which tells them what Jesus did for them, how He saved them even before
they were Christians. The Gospel gives them the power to do the things Jesus
wants them to do. If you want to motivate and encourage, the law will set the
stage, but the gospel is the only power that can motivate, encourage, and help
children to follow the way of the Lord.
Along with these general statements about
all children, there are some other general thoughts that help define the ages
of the campers we will serve.
WEEKS 1-2 GRADES 4-6
At this age,
children should be able to do the following:
^ They can
use basic reasoning skills.
^ They are
beginning to think abstractly
^ Are
inquisitive and eager to learn new concepts.
^ Can
concentrate for longer periods of time
^ Can work
cooperatively in small groups
^ Learn from
the words, actions, and opinions of their leaders, and their peers.
^ Are eager
to discuss the way Scriptural truths apply to them.
^ May begin
to test authority
^ Can
independently form personal attitudes and habits
^ Are very
highly impressionable
WEEK 2/3 GRADES 7-9
Children of
this age are usually able to do the following:
^Can think
abstractly
^Can delve
more deeply into the truths of Scripture
^Can explore
applications of Scriptural truths in many different ways
^Can
concentrate for longer periods of time.
^Can work
cooperatively in small groups
^Learn from
the words, actions and opinions of their teaches
^Are greatly
influenced by words, actions and opinions of their peers.
^Tend to
share less of what they learned with their parents.
^Beginning
the process of becoming independent from their parents.
^May test
authority
^Becoming
quite independent in forming personal attitudes and habits.
^Becoming
less likely to share feelings and how Scripture applies to them personally
^Can display
irrational mood swings
^Are
searching for their own identity and freedom
^Because of
different maturity, may be reluctant to shower, or change clothes in front of
other campers.
^Want to
show they are responsible
Keep these thoughts in mind as you are
dealing with the cabin of young people the Lord will give you this summer, and
respond with a good balance of Law and Gospel from the Word, and a tremendous
amount of love and respect for the child.
GENERAL
GUIDELINES FOR ALL COUNSELORS AT CAMP LOR-RAY
As a youth counselor you will have duties
and responsibilities, but it is also a privilege. To be placed into a position
to guide and counsel young people according to the Christian way of life
should not be taken lightly. In order that you might know just what is
expected of you, the Camp Lor-Ray board has prepared this summary, outlining
further your duties and responsibilities.
You are to be an example for the camper. The
camper will notice everything you do or say or wear. In fact, they seem to
have an uncanny way of even guessing what you think and how you feel. They
will reflect your attitude. The success of the camp depends not so much on our
facilities or even the food or weather, as much as it does on you!
What should your attitude be? It should be
at all times Christian. This means that your conduct will reflect a love for
