The Eye of the Eagle: What to Watch for in 2021 - CampHacker #140

Our job is to look forward. But when you feel like you don’t have time, allow the CampHacker crew to help!

Have you heard the expression “in uncharted waters?”. Of course, you have.

Well, right now, in February 2021, we’re in the uncharted river paddling towards the uncharted waterfall, which descends into the uncharted wading pool.

Even for camps that ran last summer, the COVID-19 pandemic saga is far from over.

Chris, Gabz, Travis and Joe are here to dig into the obvious, and the not-so-obvious things that directors should be thinking about with a few months of time to spare.

This isn’t an easy conversation, but as directors, it’s our job to have them.

What’s on your mind for 2021? Let us know in the comments!
