Programs drive camp — and new experiences make it unforgettable. Is your camp doing something awesome you want to share with fellow camp professionals?

Welcome to Program Innovation Powered by PechaKucha!

Camp is a shared experience, join us in continuing that tradition!

ACA, New England invites you to submit your program innovations to be included in our Saturday plenary. For full details and to submit your idea, visit our submission form. From counselors to directors, all levels of staff are encouraged to submit. Submissions are due by January 6, 2026. 

Have some questions? Have an idea and want to get some feedback? Pop into our “office hours” on Thursday, December 18 from 11:00am to 12:00pm (eastern) to chat with members of our Conference Committee and learn more about how you can help shape innovation at summer camp!
