WHAT IS THE GAP

AT HIDDEN ACRES?

 

The Gap at Hidden Acres is a gap-year program for college-age students interested in living, learning, working, and growing at Hidden Acres. The program is designed to give students the time and space to:

 

• discover     Purpose

• pay            Attention

• dedicate     Time

• find           Hope for the future    

 

The student can choose between one of two paths to take in the program: a vocational path or an academic path.  

 

VOCATIONAL PATH

The vocational path is a work-focused path where students will primarily work and serve at Hidden Acres. Students can expect to work 35-45 hours per week in five different departments.

 

ACADEMIC PATH

The academic path allows students the opportunity to take college courses online from Emmaus University while also getting vocational experience working at camp. Students will work 25-35 hours per week (depending on how many online classes they've enrolled in) while also being allocated time during the week to complete college coursework.

 

STUDENT GROWTH

Students on both paths will participate in regular devotion time, weekly group Bible studies, life skills classes, and receive mentorship from our full-time staff.
