Why work at Camp Henry:

Camp Henry has a wide variety of employment opportunities, from seasonal and weekends to summer, part-time and full-time. Camp Henry is more than just a great place for campers and guests, it is a great place to work! We hire a staff of fun-loving, servant-minded, and hard-working Christians, with a strong desire to provide outstanding guest and camper services and committed to helping make the world a better place and changing lives. Camp Henry is a ministry of Westminster Presbyterian Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan and has been serving families and children for over 80 years. In the Winter, Spring, and Fall we provide programs and retreats for thousands of participants and guests- so there really is no, “off season," for us. During the summer we offer residential and day camps for youth from ages 5 to 17. While we are very much a Christian Camp and intentional and concerned about providing a Christian environment, we also are committed to serving all campers and guests that attend. We do not assume, require, or expect that all of our campers and guests are Christians, yet, our hope and goal is to be Christian toward everyone that we serve. We expect that all staff members will be excellent role models, who will walk alongside, help, and encourage campers and guests to grow in their faith.
