Camper Parents
Never have I heard a camper say, "Mom, the waterfall changed my life", but every summer I hear, "Mom, my counselor loves me".
The Camp Glisson staff is what separates us from any other camp. This place is holy ground only because Jesus lives in those who serve and play here. The Camp Glisson staff members serve for no other reason than to give back what was given to them when they were campers. Staff members spend up to 11 weeks serving your children. They do this because they had counselors themselves who once showed them that they were important and that God loves them.
Glisson employs over 100 staff each summer. Below are just a few quotes from them. Please read and enjoy.

“I've spent summers in Kenya, El Salvador, and out West, but there is no greater adventure than hanging out with kids, and there is nothing more worth while on this planet than loving God's children.”
Laura Wilcox
“Working at Glisson requires your total focus and a servant's heart. It requires that you, as a counselor, have an undistracted devotion for the Lord Jesus.”
Seann McConnell
"No matter how old I get, I will never forget the look on a camper's face when they realize and see that not only is God real...but He loves them"
David Schutte
