Teach your staff and campers the value of #getoutside
Stop reading these show notes and just get outside!
Just kidding - you can give it a read.
So far this season we have discussed the adjustments to camp, and the impact on how this generation is being labelled as the “indoor generation”. Over the past few decades, children's relationships with the great outdoors have changed drastically. We know that parents have transformed from allowing their kids to roam outside free to be worried about children's safety, making our jobs even more difficult as we help develop summer camp leaders and teach our staff about the amazing benefits of spending time outside.
Gabrielle, Beth and Ruby are back and ready to discuss new ways to get you leaders where they belong ...outside!
Some of these hot topics are listed below, tune in to find out more.

From Gab and one of her friends:
“Treat your life like you have one”.
Create boundaries and systems to help you and your staff remember that there is indeed a life outside of camp. Don’t let your identity get wrapped up in your job. This will make you a happier, healthy person with clearer perspectives.
