Please take time to familiarize yourself with the staff manual. We will go over all of this material in training, but hearing it more than once is helpful. There is a lot of information to digest!
This booklet is full of games and activities you can do with campers. We recommend you learning 1-2 before coming to camp! You will be provided a hard copy of this booklet when you arrive.
Another great place to learn camp games and activities is the website Ultimate Camp Resource.
Miniwanca has a rich history of singing! We have lots of very silly songs and some more serious, reflective songs. Every staff member should know at least 2 silly songs to lead for fire circles and in-between time with campers. You will have time to learn songs once you are on site as well!
You can also listen to some of our classic songs on our Soundcloud.
Here are some spotify playlists to get you in the mood for camp!
