Starting Strong: Meeting With Campers Starting Strong: Meeting With Campers

Camp, whether day or resident, happens mostly in groups—the cabin, the bunk, and the day camp group. Campers arrive in groups, live in groups, and go to activities in groups, yet most staff training focuses on skills with campers one-on-one. This concise, practical program develops the essential skills all staff need to have more effective, productive group meetings with campers. Featuring more of the best of Bob Ditter, Starting Strong: Meeting With Campers addresses several factors, including holding a first cabin or group meeting, checking in with campers, and solving problems as a group with greater cooperation and success. Among the topics covered: gathering campers into a circle, camp agreements, meeting rules, telling campers what you expect, and being prepared. Produced in cooperation with the American Camp Association.
