Youth Leaders of Summer
Camp is one of our many summer traditions in Tualatin. Whether it be Nature is Awesome Week at Voyagers Camp, volunteer projects completed by TEAM Tualatin, or a focus on building conflict resolution skills at H.E.R.O.E.S. Camp, one thing all of these camps have in common is the awesome youth leaders making it all happen. Between our different camps, 31 youth leaders are bringing the magic, fun, adventure, growth, and oh-so-many games to over 700 campers this summer.
This summer, we offered an Explorers Camp for youth entering grades 1 – 3, Voyagers Camp for youth entering grades 4 – 6, and Teen Adventure Camp for youth entering grades 7 – 12. All three camps run for eight weeks between June and August and feature fun themes, field trips, and scholarships for those with a financial need. Check out Sidney Dering’s full interview below to hear more about her experience as a Camp Lead.
The TEAM (Together, Everyone Achieves More) Tualatin Program has been running for 25 years and attracts youth ages 12 – 18 looking to learn more about the community and volunteer. Participants water and mulch plants, plant gardens, paint fire hydrants, wash vehicles, and interact with a variety of City staff. Check out Stella Roth’s full interview below to hear more about her experience as a leader this summer, having volunteered in the program prior to that.
Finally, the H.E.R.O.E.S. (Help Educate Responsible Outstanding Everyday Students) Camp ran four sessions between June and July for students entering grades 6 – 9. This camp is facilitated by our Police Department, and focuses on promoting being respectful, responsible, safe, and kind. Check out Liam Pickering’s full interview below to learn more about his experience.
