Summer 2023 Debrief Series
Learn Together.
Join other summer camp professionals as we debrief the summer! We'll talk wins, challenges, and where we can go from here.
You'll hear from people in similar positions and understand what was unique to your camp and what was a trend across many camps. From there, we can work together to build on our successes and make plans for our challenges.
Each free meeting lasts for one hour. These meetings are interactive, so come prepared to come off mute and share out in a small group. We'll provide the questions - you provide the answers. To encourage open conversations, these sessions will not be recorded, but we will put together a blog recap after each.
