Do the mysteries of God’s creation intrigue you? How about snorkeling on a coral reef? All this and more can be experienced on our trip to Conch Key off southern Florida, led by our Staff Biologist Michael Lane. You’ll experience morning lectures under the palm trees and go on offshore excursions to coral reefs, mangroves, rocky coasts and grass flats. We’ll take a day to dive/snorkel on one of the best coral reefs in the Keys! All this, plus fun in the sun, makes this the educational trip of a lifetime.

Are you looking for a challenging and fun way to spend your summer? Fort could be the place for you. Not only is summer staff a great way to serve others, but it is also a time to be encouraged and challenged in your relationship with Christ; a place to build significant friendships and work alongside other staff.

We need staff in a variety of areas including horsemanship, lifeguarding, counseling, kitchen, coffeeshop, maintenance, canteen, etc. and anywhere from one week to twelve. Select paid positions are available for summer-long, college-age applicants, as well as short-term senior counselors. Moms, dads, single adults and retirees, we have opportunities for you, too! Please call for information and download an application.
