Family Fest KC Kids Counselors

At the heart of Family Fest is our amazing group of high school, college, and young adults who lead programs for infants through 9th grade.

At Family Fest, we treasure kids and students! We are passionate about helping the next generation know and follow Jesus. In high-energy environments, all kids — toddlers to teens — develop friendships with peers and role models to discover how God made them special. Our desire is to provide kids and students with set-apart experiences to help them live set-apart lives for Jesus.

Winter Weekend KCs

Making an Impact on Another Generation

KCs (Kid’s Counselors) are role models and leaders for our kids from infant to 9th grade. They work together with 30-40 other KCs to lead a fun, nurturing program that teaches about Jesus through stories, games, arts & crafts, music, and scripture. If you are interested in making a positive impact on younger kids, as you also grow in your own faith, we would love for you to consider being a KC

Frequently Asked Questions About Being a KC

KCs do not stay with parents during the weekend, but rather with the other KCs and teachers on property.

KCs will have a fairly busy schedule serving the kids programs or doing KC activities and training. There is some afternoon free time that allows KCs to hang together or with their families.

You will see each other during the all group events and at meals. There will be one lunch where KCs will eat with their families. In addition, there may be some afternoon free time where you can be together.

Yes. We will have a mandatory training meeting. These meetings are generally held one to two weeks prior to camp on a Sunday.

It is important that KCs be there for the entire weekend as we don’t have room to bring extra KCs. Please choose a weekend that works the whole time for you. Thanks.

The KCs will be lead each week/weekend by adults who have a great passion for working with high school and college students. They will help with the kid’s programs as well as leading the KCs on their own spiritual adventure.

Nope! All that is taken care of. KCs will be sent a list of everything that they should bring.

KCs are generally 10th grade and up. Occasionally we have need for more KCs and 9th graders can apply. Let us know if you are interested and we can tell you if we think there may be a need. Otherwise, 9th graders will be placed in the 9th grade program.

The cost is $150. Scholarships are available. Please reach out to Barb Harmon or Pete Larson for more information on KC Scholarships.
