Camp Organizing Committee

The Camp Organizing Committee (COC) works diligently year-round to make camp week happen. In addition to organizing the summer programs, these dedicated volunteers plan family fun days, virtual programs and reunions. 

COC Volunteers

Think this might be a great opportunity? Here's a checklist to get started! Are you:

  • At least 18 years of age

  • Able to provide a Criminal Record Check with Vulnerable Sector Screening

  • Able to provide 2 character references

  • Available for an interview 

  • Able to be a positive member of a volunteer team

  • Able to complete mandatory training sessions

  • Available year-round to support and lead programs

Check out why you really need to volunteer year-round on the COC…

  • Real Human Connection: ​​We’re grateful that Zoom allowed us to bring Camp-at-Home to life! But we’re ready to sign-off in 2022 and get back to the essence of CQ - making new friends, mentoring children affected by cancer and learning new skills ourselves!

  • Get Back to Nature: The last two years, we’ve been inside, doing our part to keep our communities safe. Now, we’re ready for the outdoors, where camp truly exists. It’s beautiful and fills our soul with happiness. 

 

  • Learn Leadership Skills: Ready to up your leadership game? The kind of leadership that’s not taught in books, classrooms, or TedTalks, but real, hands-on leadership that you can only learn through a COC position. Camp provides leadership experience that will elevate your game for the rest of your life — at home, in school, and in your career!

 

  • Impact the Future: That’s right, as a COC member you immediately become an integral part in the next generation of CQ. Playing a critical role in the development of our programs and well-being of our campers.
