OUR YEAR-ROUND TEAM!
MARK WURTZ, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Mark has been the executive director since 2001, but his first time as summer staff was over 25 years ago! He is great at his job because of his desire to see the camp grow and impact many for the Kingdom of God and he makes this vision contagious. Mark enjoys the many different tasks his job entails, both in and out of the office, and he has the skills to hit those tasks out of the park! Mark is inspired by the Bible, the Holy Spirit, his family, and the beautiful Candace Wurtz, who is his wife and his hero. When he has spare time he enjoys reading, playing squash, vacations with his family, and, of course, cheering on the Saskatchewan Roughriders!

BEV NEUDORF, OFFICE ADMINISTRATOR
Bev's background as an account clerk, and even more important, a full-time mom, equipped her for her position as the beloved office administrator here at YFBC. She has been a dedicated staff member for over two years because she loves the Christ-centered environment. We know Bev is one amazing lady because the apple doesn't fall from the tree! Bev describes her mom as her hero, an amazing woman, who could go from cooking a meal for her family to sewing their clothes, then out to the barn to deliver a calf and finish the day by fixing a fence. Bev hasn't needed to fix one of our fences yet but it's nice to know your camp registrations are organized by someone who feels so at home on the farm.
Getting in contact with Bev can happen by email - bev@yfbc.ca or phone - (306) 232 5133 ext 308
