As is true at every camp in the mission, serving at Woodleaf presents with both incredible benefits and unique challenges. Located in the Plumas National Forest, Woodleaf is a remote and rural place and our staff have the opportunity to build community while both living and serving together. Trips to town are an "event" not a daily part of life. Although you can grab a jug of milk from the local Dollar General, the closest significant city is one hour away. For those with families, this is a family venture as many of the amenities that people are often used to in larger cities are not immediately available. Education options include public, charter, private, or homeschool options but most traditional options involve a lot of driving and many at Woodleaf have opted for charter school or homeschool options. For those willing to make some unique lifestyle adjustments, living and working at Woodleaf is an amazing adventure. The weather is fantastic overall. National parks, the coast, and large cities are only a day trip away (San Francisco, Yosemite, Sacramento, Lassen, Lake Tahoe, the Redwoods, etc.). Notes: Young Life is a relational ministry. Staff must be able to convey a sense of Christ-like hospitality and concern for guests and staff. Responding to the unexpected needs of a guest in a prompt and professional manner is important. All staff members are expected to represent Young Life positively and professionally within the community and be able to work with and minister to the volunteer high school and college-age young people who attend our camp. Young Life camps facilitate leader-centered ministry in the lives of kids and provide extraordinary environments where kids can encounter Jesus and grow in their faith. The entire Young Life camping experience is a strategy for supporting the mission ,vision, values and methods of ministry that we uphold.
