What did you love about your experience?
What I loved about my experience with Created for Adventure was the friendships I made with the group and my leaders. The Alaska adventure trip allowed me to not only become friends with everyone, but also get to know them on a deeper level. From taking turns cooking for the group to witnessing some of the most stunning landscapes God has to offer, I feel like the trip brought us all together and created an environment that made us feel comfortable with each other.
Why did you decide to apply as a leader?
I applied as a leader to share my love for God in an adventurous and fun environment.
Which trip did you help lead?
I helped lead the Colorado Trailblazer for 7th and 8th graders the summer of 2022.
Was there anything that surprised you about leading the trip?
Even though I was leading the campers in conversations about the gospel, I was surprised to discover I ultimately grew in my faith as well.
Would you recommend other former campers to apply to work on staff with Created for Adventure? If so, why?
I would totally recommend applying for a leadership role with Created for Adventure! One of the biggest things for me was that I had outgrown being able to participate on an adventure trip as a camper. Working on staff allowed me an opportunity to help my campers have the same sort of life changing experience that I had on my trip. The leadership team at Created for Adventure is extremely organized and made being a leader easy and fun. I would definitely recommend this for anyone who loved their previous trips and is comfortable sharing their love for the Lord.
