College Crew
Come with us the week of Bootcamp to help students pursue a faith of their own
What is the College Crew?
A group of college-aged students that bridge the gap at Bootcamp and Camp 75 between students and small group leaders. From leading small groups to engaging in free time and just being with students when they need it, the college crew is essential to helping a 500+ student Bootcamp go off without a hitch.

You're good to go! Here's a few more questions we typically get.
Though the week of Camp 75 is designed around teams that are mixed with different grades and genders, small group leaders can be involved in various ways. Leaders can serve by hosting and driving, leading small groups that take place from 4:00-4:45pm, as well as hanging out with their groups during free time. Many groups will pick a day to hangout between 11:30am - 4:00pm during free time.
This is our first year of having our college crew at Bootcamp. We'd love to see this expand into Camp 75, but for now, the role is specific to Bootcamp. That being said, we'd love to have you be a part of Camp 75 through hosting or driving, and you can learn more about being involved in Camp 75 here.
We strongly recommend leaving and coming back during the break so you have a time to step away, relax, sleep, eat, and come back re-energized. That being said, we understand if that is not possible, and you can stay at Northpoint during the break and we will show movies in the auditorium. Lunch will not be provided, so please prepare for lunch ahead of time.
Yes! At Northpoint we are growing as a church and as a result some things are changing and we want to make sure your camp is a success. Training will get everyone on the same page and allow you to share your past feedback.
When you sign up, you are registering for Bootcamp (overnight at Carolina Creek Christian Center in Huntsville, TX from June 11th-14th) AND Camp 75 (local, July 7th-10th).

Bootcamp is June 18th - June 22nd. Camp 75 is July 15-18th.
It costs $369 for a student to attend Bootcamp and Camp 75. Over the course of two weeks, this provides 4 nights of overnight at camp, charter bus transportation to and from, over 20 meals, leadership development trainining, curriculum, and materials, and all of the other intangibles that Camp 75 provides.
Maybe! Where you get placed depends on when & where we have seat belts available. We’ll get you placed once you show up.
The answer to this statement or question is that you're needed! The growth we've experienced as a church is absolutely amazing, and to serve and love our community and our students, your engagement is essential. Whether that's sponsoring a student, hosting or driving, or serving as a group, your involvement is essential.

Bootcamp is an incredibly fun week where you'll get to hang out with your small group (by grade and gender) ,and your team that you'll be placed on for the week of Camp 75. There's lots of free time to hang out at the lake or pool, night sessions with awesome music and practical teaching, theme nights where we have different activities planned and so much more!
Camp 75 is 4 days of going into the community and putting on camps for kids and adults in the community.
It costs $369 for a student to attend Bootcamp and Camp 75. If a student in your small group has concerns about finances, find out more here.
Here's a video where our Camp 75 director explains Camp 75 in a nutshell.
While we encourage that students are there for all of Bootcamp and Camp 75, we understand that sometimes there are conflicts. Please email us at camp75@npaustin.com so we can work with your student and their individual circumstance.
No. Camp 75 is a local camp which means that you sleep at your own home! You will come to Northpoint each morning, leave at 11:30, and come back at 5. Then you will eat dinner, and get ready for your two evening camps!

Our themes are not quite set for this year, but they'll be communicated to adult leaders as soon as they are.

Although small groups do have small group leaders throughout middle school and high school, there are always some that cannot make it to Bootcamp and the students are without a leader. Also, at Bootcamp, usually around 1/3 of the students are attending for the first time, so the group dynamic is new anyways and it won't be weird or awkward if you're worried about that.
We assign these the week leading up to Camp 75. This year, teams have the option to recruit their own host homes and drivers, so your captain may already know who they're going to be.

For InsideOut groups, if neither leader is present during the week of Bootcamp, we will try to have an intern or members of our College Crew lead your small group throughout the week. If you're a Transit leader, we may ask your student co-leader to help out, or have an intern or College Crew member lead their group as the student's time with their own small group is important as well.
Email us at camp75@npaustin.com! We'd love to answer any questions you may have.
Sometimes it makes sense for Walk-Ons to join the team of the friend they were invited by, but often times it's best if they make new connections and friends based on space available, what camp Walk-Ons are going to, etc. So we will work this out case by case.

Nothing! We understand money is tight in college. We get charged $200 per person, so if you'd like to make a donation, you're more than welcome to, but it is not an expectation at all.
The camp itself is only 75 minutes. You’ll probably want to be prepared about 10-15 minutes before the camp, and available to hang on the back end as well. Beyond that, just use the time you have to invite like crazy leading up to the event!
Our entire financial assistance fund is fundraised. If a student approaches us in need of discounted registration, we can only distribute funds if we've already raised those funds. Typically around 15-20% of our students request some form of need-based financial assistance. We can only provide funds to students for as long as the funds are available.
Northpoint will provide transportation to and from Bootcamp (charter busses), as well as transportation to and from each camp the week of Camp 75. Students will need transportation to and from Northpoint for Bootcamp and to and from Northpoint each day of Camp 75.

Yes! While we can guarantee you will be tired and distracted, you can certainly sneak away as needed to knock out some work and we can get you access to the wi-fi if that will help you be able to attend during the week.
Email us at camp75@npaustin.com! We'd love to answer any questions you may have.
As a host you are expected to provide snack and drinks for those attending your camps including the students. On Wednesday, we have "Wet and Wild Wednesday," so we do ask that you have access to a hose and water source. The students leading your camp will have supplies needed for the games they will be playing, however, if you are able to provide something for water fights that is always a huge fun factor (i.e.water balloons, squirt guns, cups, plastic sponges etc…)
All meals will be provided during the week of Bootcamp, and breakfast and dinner will be provided the week of Camp 75. If your student has any food allergies, please indicate this on their registration form, and we will be sure to accommodate!
It would be ideal to be able to count on you for the entire week so that you're there for every small group, every adult leader need, etc. However, having you there part of the time is way better than not at all, so you can certainly come if it is only for part of the week.

CC requires that we bring 1 adult for every 8 students. These adults will be made up of our Camp 75 interns, Small Group Leaders, and our College Crew that will be extra supervision provided by returning college students. Carolina Creek also has staff members and 2 nurses onsite 24/7. Each of our adults attending will be required to go through training and background checks as well.
No! We are happy to have hosts that don’t attend Northpoint, we do however ask you to attend one of our trainings.
Because we're coordinating over 40 teams with roughly 300 students or so, we are locked into those 3 time slots. There may be slight flexibility, but we need to keep it in those parameters generally.

Every team will have at least one adult driver, and at times more will be present. If you have a specific student to adult ratio, we can work this out ahead of time.

No. Camp 75 is a local retreat which means your student will come home each night after camp 75 is over for the day. Students have a break from 12pm till 5pm each day. They will need to be picked up from Northpoint, or arrange for other transportation.
Before leaving for bootcamp you will place all of your student's medication in a bag. When you arrive to drop your student off for bootcamp you will fill out the dosage and times for the medication to be taken. There will be a registered nurse who will be administering the medication on site.
It’s up to you, but we encourage hosts to hold camp in their front yard so your neighbors can see all the fun going on and to encourage more people to come, but if you feel like your backyard is a better environment for the kids and students we will leave that up to you.

There is not a registration fee to drive for Camp 75. Other than gas in your car, it is nice to have a cooler with some drinks and snacks for the students you are driving. This is not a requirement, but fun to have. In the past, some drivers have taken their team to Sonic for drinks or even to lunch. This is up to you and not a requirement.
