604 Mission Blvd., Jackson, CA 95642 CAMP SAINT SAVA of the Serbian Orthodox Church Dear Prospective Camp Staff, Volunteers and Counselors, Camp St. Sava Needs You! Can you help this year? The Camp St. Sava Committee has been working diligently to prepare for this year’s camp season. As usual, camp will begin after the Apostles’ Fast on July 12, 2015 Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Sunday, July 12 - Saturday July 18 Sunday, July 19 - Saturday July 25 Sunday, July 26 - Saturday Aug. 1 We hope that you will be able to volunteer your time and talent to make this year’s program memorable for the camp children. On the pages which follow, you will find all of the necessary forms which need to be submitted to apply to be part of our Camp St. Sava staff. Volunteers must submit their applications to the camp committee for approval. It is important to note, however, that each week of camp is administered by different clergy and lay directors. It is the responsibility of these leaders to put together their own team of volunteers to staff their week of camp. It is advisable, therefore, that you contact directly either the lay director or the clergy director for the week in which you wish to volunteer to discuss which positions are open. The directors for the three weeks are as follows: Week 1 Proto Dusan Bunjevic and Paul Bunjevic ([email protected]) Week 2 Proto Bratislav Krsic and Fr. Steve Tumbas (Temporary Director) [email protected] Week 3 Proto George Gligich and Nick Salata ([email protected]) Final decisions about staffing rest with these leaders and not with the camp committee. Each week we need a kitchen manager, kitchen helpers, arts and crafts teachers, a nurse or physician, dining room help, evening activities coordinators and, of course, many counselors. COUNSELORS are responsible for the supervision of the campers throughout the day. They live with the campers in the dorms, prepare them and lead them in all the activities according to the camp schedule. All counselors must be at least eighteen years of age, baptized Orthodox Christians and willing to report for training and orientation at 2:00 pm on the Saturday before each week of camp. In addition to room and board for their week-long services, counselors will recieve an honorarium based on this sliding scale: First year service, $100; Second year, $150, Third year, $200. Please note: All COUNSELORS must agree to a background check as required by California state law. Best regards, Fr.
