Station “Leaders” take responsibility for providing the lesson/activity (Crafts, Games, Music, Faith) for each Rotation.  There are 5 25- minute rotations each day (Tuesday-Friday).  Leaders will have student assistants assigned to them to help with delivering the lesson.  Lesson plans will be provided and can be adapted.

Group leaders are students and adults who chaperone the groups from Station to Station.  They will assist as needed for program, but main responsibility is group management.
