Summer Camp
Working at Pendalouan is a life-changing experience. It isn’t easy to be on call 24 hours a day, encouraging those who are struggling, drying tears, plunging a clogged toilet, icing a sprained ankle. However, in the process you become a more tolerant person—more aware of who you are and who you want to be… an amazing entertainer… a problem solver… a hero to a child. Making a difference in the lives of children is what makes a big difference in your own life.
From June through August we provide overnight camps for students age 6-15. If you are interested in working with children at YMCA Camp Pendalouan in Montague, Michigan, download the Summer Staff Application and send it to us as soon as possible.
