Shrine Mont Camp Cast
by Shrine Mont Camps
The Shrine Mont Camp Cast is a show that aims to bring the world of shrine mont camps straight to your ears! It's a new way to tell the story of camp. Not a one-on-one interview with a staff member every week, but multiple voices telling the story. Shrine Mont Camps has always been a place where different voices can thrive in the same environment, something I hope to capture with the Camp-Cast. You won't hear from me much in this show, but what you will hear are the voices of Shrine Mont Camp telling the story as it unfolds.

The Last Day of Camp
At Shrine Mont, camps close a little differently from other camps out there. We don't just pat the kids on the back and send them home, we hold an entire service dedicated to the session that just occurred as campers mix with families before we send them into the valley of the world. Today on the...

We Are All Artists (at Art Camp)

The Life Of A Program Director
In the summer of 2016 I shadowed Olivia Bambara, the Explorer's Camp Program Director for a day. I had worked as a Program Director in the past, but half the fun of this podcast is that it was one of the few I've made where I don't have to hear my own voice. So I sought out Olivia who had been...

Marking the World - SHYC
This summer I was placed in a new role with Senior High Youth Conference, for the duration of their time on the mountain I would serve as Storyteller in Residence. Together we examined how we would tell the story of SHYC and spread the word about the folks we had marked both on and off the mountain.

A Special Visit to Camp CTK
This summer a fair percentage of our staff hailed from South Africa, specifically The Diocese of Christ The King. Every year, this diocese hosts Camp CTK, and while a group of its staffers had the chance to come work at Shrine Mont this summer, Paris Ball and Ashley Isenhower visited Camp CTK…

The Last Prank War: A Cautionary Minisode
In depictions of camp on the big screen there is often an element of pranking going on, whether it's pranks against the camp director or the rival rich-kid camp across the lake. In this episode of the Camp Cast we learn about why such events no longer happen at Shrine Mont Camps as we chronicle…

A Camp That's Ready For Them
Hello folks, welcome to Summer 2 of the Shrine Mont Camp Cast! Right off the bat, you'll notice one key difference with the show this summer and that's our release schedule which will now be biweekly. This show is a lot of work for one man to take on, and in the interest of self-preservation…

First Timers and Final Days
2012 was my first year on Shrine Mont Staff, one that marked a shift in my life. For an entire summer I felt at home, surrounded by a family of which I had no blood relatives. I left a temp job in Chicago where I mindlessly scheduled deliveries and over the course of the summer realized that I...

Prepping for Saint Elizabeth's
Last year I had the pleasure of attending the Saint Elizabeth's talent show, during which a camper got up to sing a song, it was probably a top 40 radio hit at the time, but I can't remember. What I do remember is a group of counselors freaking out around me. As it turns out, the camper was…

Here I Am: MAD Camp on Tour
Throughout this run of the Shrine Mont Camp Cast I've worked diligently to cover my bias for Music And Drama Camp. I was a camper there from 2002-2008, it was the first camp I ever worked on, and has been a second home to me for many summers. MAD Camp is unbelievably near to my heart and largely...

SHYC -Taking Service Off the Mountain.
At camp we like to instill values in our campers that will follow them off the mountain. Shrine Mont has always had the power to let campers head home feeling like they're a part of larger community and with any luck they'll carry the values of acceptance and love with them in their everyday…

Camping for Jesus
The Shrine Mont Camp Cast is no stranger to the topics of God, church, and worship. Shrine Mont Camps are run under The Episcopal Diocese of Virginia, so it makes perfect sense that worship should play a big roll in camp. This week, we're diving into how we worship at camp, a process which is...

Staff Vs World
The Fourth of July is a notoriously big day for Shrine Mont Camps, it's a day known as The Bishop's Jubilee. Past staffers and campers return to the mountain for a day of good food, a 5K race, bands and a chance to reconnect with a place that many of us have called home. The fourth of the July…

Camping in the Rain
In the world outside of camp, weather rarely breaks the barriers of small talk, you grab an umbrella and you're fine. However, "Some weather we're having" is the start of a much more important conversation where the vast majority of your day is spent outside. I've witnessed sessions of camp where...

Training Week
Kicking off the Shrine Mont Camp Cast, we begin in the same place camp does: Training Week. We take some much needed time to learn what camps are on the mountain this summer as well as what it takes to train the staff for a summer of campers.
