Thank you for taking the time to learn more about Cedar Canyon Camp.


For more than 20 years, I've had the privilege of serving in Christian camping. Since I was six years old, I've watched God use Christian camps to change lives. Every role at Cedar Canyon matters because every role helps create places where people can encounter Christ.
 

As Guest Services Director, you'll often be the first interaction guests have with our ministry. Your warmth, organization, and hospitality help churches, families, schools, and retreat groups focus on what matters most—encountering Christ.


I'm praying God brings us a leader who loves Jesus, loves people, values excellence, and believes hospitality is ministry.
