New Team Members
Andy Nichols, Site & Facilities Manager
Hello, I am Andy Nichols! I am a married Christian father of 5, and a home school Dad & Principal at Triple-Double H & H Christian Academy. I serve Christ Community Church in Beatrice, NE as a Deacon, its Security Director, and co VBS Direct with my wife. I was a Policeman for 17 years in Lincoln, and I do part time Roofing sales with Golden Rule Contractors. I enjoy serving Jesus through service and coaching. I also love to hunt and fish, and spend the rest of my time with my family.
Favorite Camp Activity/Song
My favorite camp activity is riding on the train into the woods!
If you were a Moose, what would your occupation be?
If I were a Moose, my occupation would be a hat and a clothes hanger.
Emma Leopold, Admin & Connections Intern
Hi! I’m Emma and I’m from Perth in Western Australia. This past summer was my 6th summer serving at camp. I am so excited to be an intern with camp again this year. I am blessed to be a part of this community where we Belong! I am looking forward to growing into more of who God created me to be!
Favorite Camp Activity/Song
My favorite assembly song would probably be Deep Cries Out. It is just such an amazing song and I love just listening to the words (and jumping up and down too!)
If you were a Moose, what would your occupation be?
If I was a moose, I would probably be a lollipop lady moose! In Australia the lollipop lady carries a sign on a pole and she goes into the middle of the road when children are trying to cross the road before and after school.
Hannah Nichols, Ministry Intern
Hey all! My name is Hannah Nichols! I am a homeschool graduate who loves Jesus, camp, her people, sports, and her dog! I am super excited to be a part of Camp Sonshine in the year round because it means that I get to continue to serve at camp even though the summer is over! I am looking forward to learning more about camp and getting a front row seat to watch the LORD continue to work through Camp Sonshine!
Favorite Camp Activity/Song
My favorite camp activity is the Solaris Aerial Park!
If you were a Moose, what would your occupation be?
If I was a moose, I would own a ski lodge in Colorado.
Freedom Anderson, Ministry Intern
I’ve been serving at Camp Sonshine and through that I discovered my passion for working with young kids and teaching them about the gospel. I’m excited to serve at Camp Sonshine this year because it will help me gain deeper insights into ministering to children and strengthen my own faith and walk with Christ.
Favorite Camp Activity/Song
My favorite camp activity is gaga ball because it’s such a classic.
If you were a Moose, what would your occupation be?
If I was a moose, I would have the same occupation as Morris the moose
Charis Erickson, Hospitality Intern
I’m so pumped to be serving at Camp Sonshine this year! It’s so apparent that God is working through camp to bring the gospel to others, kids especially. Hospitality is something that I’ve always found a passion for, creating a space where all feel welcome. To do that in a Christian environment is so exciting, and I can’t wait to further His kingdom alongside the amazing staff
Favorite Camp Activity/Song
Five Cacti!! (The Cactus Song)
If you were a Moose, what would your occupation be?
Moose Massoose!
