"The Bubble" and Camp Magic - The Pudding #3

How do you measure magic?

Every camp professional, whether new or seasoned, knows what we mean when we say “camp magic”.

For most of us, we think of camp magic as this ethereal, indescribable, ever-present part of camp. This “magic” is what many of us feel sets camp apart from everywhere else.

To a camp researcher, this camp magic is something that is actually definable.

Tune in to this episode to hear Travis and Mandi unpack their vast experience living and researching this “insiders-only” concept.

You’ll hear about:

  • What does camp “being a bubble” have to do with camp magic?

  • How are the people at camp integral to creating that magic?

  • What elements go into creating this “world apart”?

  • At what point does “camp magic” become “camp cult?”

  • How to support camp staff while they’re living and working in the “bubble”
