Work Crew Recommendation Process – Staff

Work crew recommendations are now submitted through YLConnect.


Adding Additional Camp Spots

For trips wanting to add/drop/switch weeks for camp trips please see the checklist below:

  • The Camp trip is ‘published’ on YLCC
  • The number of current volunteer leaders (that are available to go to camp) is approximately a 1:7 ratio for HS, 1:5 ratio for Wyldlife.
  • Conversation with your supervisor about the request (with the Regional office cc’d) with an awareness of three history on IR, R1, R2 and actual numbers.

When you request to add spots via your R1 contract the Divisional office will reach out to the camping responsible party to confirm that the statements above are true. If you have already requested to add spots via your IR contract there is no need to make an additional request as we already have your request noted.


Leader Guides

The new Leader Guide is nearly finished! For those who have seen the Committee Handbook, we’re doing the same kind of thing for leaders! Our goal is to have these printed and ready for distribution at our Regional Leader Weekends.

Please complete the form above (y’all better click that button) to submit your pre-order – $5/printed copy.

A digital copy will be made readily available when finished. Additional printed and bound copies can be ordered at a later date, but will cost more to ship them to your area.
