OVERVIEW

VISTO Performing Arts Camp will allow students to engage in weekly summer camp experiences.

Camp Counsellors will be passionate about their faith, each other and eager to make a

difference in young people. Comprehensive VISTO training will allow everyone the

opportunity to learn more about themselves and the world around them while growing

individually and as a team. Through this leadership opportunity with small groups of young

people ages 8-16 years, Camp Counsellors will facilitate conversations and learning about

character and faith. Counsellors will create dynamic experiences and participate in highenergy

activities to engage and encourage everyone. Participation in rehearsals and

activities is required. This role requires enthusiasm, stamina and a willingness to grow in faith

and leadership.

WHO WE ARE

K2K Productions has existed for 18 years as a weekly theatre arts program for students in

grades 2-12. Students in each K2K Company experience small groups and mentoring,

coaching in singing, dancing, and acting and preparing for a full-scale musical. We desire

that every student will find a place to belong, a place to fit in and their purpose. VISTO

Performing Arts Camp is launching Summer 2023 to support the needs and interests of

students in our program while offering weekly performances and engagement opportunities

for families and the community.

We are committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for young

people to grow in faith and develop skills no matter their experiences or background.
