Different?\nWhat can I do to help each camper feel welcome in my presence? How about staff?\nWhat do you want the memories kids have of you to be\, especially as they relate to the concept of resiliency?

DESCRIPTION:The Business of Camp – A series of e-workshops \nFacilitated by Bette Bussel\, retired Executive Director\, ACA\, New England & Eric Arnold\, Executive Director\, Hale Education \nFacilitators will be joined by monthly guest speakers and topic experts \nThis series has reached its capacity of 30 attendees\, so registration is now closed. We don’t anticipate any cancellations\, but if you’d like to be added to a wait list\, please email kerry@acanewengland.org. \nDon’t think about your title\, think about your role at camp.

Or\, are you an emerging or mid-career professional who sees yourself moving into such a role within the next couple of years? \nIf so\, this series of five monthly e-sessions is for you! This series is open to all – independent camps\, non-profit camps\, agency camps\, and everyone in between! While some nuances may be different\, many of the tools and strategies are applicable and can be scaled for any camp. \nWhile we can’t cover all the camp business-related topics in five sessions\, we hope to build a learning community\, provide you with resources to explore\, and give you lots to think about as you gain skills to successfully navigate the business of your camp.

SUMMARY:You Can’t Pour from an Empty Cup: Well-being for you and your staff
DESCRIPTION:You Can’t Pour from an Empty Cup: Well-being for you and your staff\nThank you to our event sponsor  \nDid you head into summer 2021 knowing it would be a challenge\, but excited to serve campers who you knew needed camp more than ever? And\, by the end\, were you celebrating that\, but also feeling worn down more than ever – realizing you didn’t take the best care of yourself and many of your staff struggled\, despite staff appreciation efforts? \nIf so\, you weren’t alone. As year-round camp leaders\, summer is “go time\,” which means you push through\, no matter what\, knowing there’s an end in sight. But\, many of your seasonal staff members (key to your camp’s success) may not get those down times in the off-season – they are students\, teachers\, or work in other fields that may be equally as demanding. \nSo\, how can you think differently about taking care of yourself during camp (and beyond) and develop and implement systems that encourage and nurture staff health throughout the camp season? We invite you to join us for a day that will dive into topics of mindset\, self-care\, burnout\, resiliency\, and organizational structures to support well-being at camp. \n10:00 am – 11:30 am ET:        Session 1: Reduce Camp Season Stress with Neuroscience-Based Resilience Strategies\, Erin Urban\, UPPSolutions \n11:30 am – 12:30 pm ET:        Self-Care and Lunch Break – Please plan for 20-30 minutes of a self-care activity that is meaningful to you during this time (we will ask you to share your plan in the chat) \n12:30 pm – 2:00 pm ET:          Session 2: Building Camp Environments that Support Engagement and Self-Care\, Rebecca Zelis\, Songadeewin of Keewaydin \n\nCost: $50 ACA\, Member / $75 Non-Member (Interested in ACA Membership?) \nRegistrations are non-refundable\, but may be transferred to another eligible individual prior to the start of the event. A minimum of 25 registered participants is required for this event to run. \nPlease note: We do not want cost to prohibit a camp professional from joining our event. Should the price of this e-seminar be a barrier\, please reach out to Kerry Salvo\, kerry@acanewengland.org to discuss financial assistance options. \nThe two sessions will be recorded and available for viewing following the event\, if you can’t join us live! \n\nSession Details \nSession 1: Reduce Camp Season Stress with Neuroscience-Based Resilience Strategies \nAs the socio-economic impacts from the pandemic wear on\, many professionals are finding that the level of continued uncertainty provides a significant source of stress. Compounded with the demands of an intense cycle of work for camp leaders and their teams – it is no longer enough to say that one ‘should’ be resilient. \nJoin Forbes Coaches Council member and Certified Executive Coach\, Erin Urban\, to discover the critical tools to tackle the seasonal demands of summer camp that reduce stress\, empower leadership and team mindsets\, and avoid burnout. Learn how to leverage easily applicable science-based solutions to mindfully manage change and meet the demands of your career/life. Find balance again for yourself and your camp teams with self-care micro habits that can keep you at 100%. \nKey Topic Takeaways: \n\n\n\nTop work/life saboteurs during strong change cycles and how to spot them before they derail you.\nWhat is ‘mindset’ and why it matters for resilience and managing change. The science\, the solutions\, and the road to success.\nDevelop a personalized resilience plan to ignite powerful long-term results that elevate you and your team.\n\n\n\nSession 2: Building Camp Environments that Support Engagement and Self-Care  \nWhile individuals can implement strategies to enhance their resilience\, well-being\, and success\, it’s critical to provide your staff with a culture and environment that supports their efforts. \nThe pandemic showed us both the strength and weaknesses of our communities and leadership. This workshop will give you strategies and tools to build a camp culture that inspires a collaborative\, resilient\, and interdependent staff. You will be provided with self-care planning resources specific to the experience of camp counselors\, allowing your staff to make customized\, personal plans to support their own well-being (and each others’) sustainably throughout the summer. \nKey Topic Takeaways: \n\n\n\nHow environment can impact your staff and either enhance or detract from their experience\, sense of safety\, and well-being.\nThe impact of leadership styles on staff’s sense of community and engagement\, considering multi-generational differences that cause conflict and misunderstandings.\nHow individualized self-care planning can create a community narrative of collective success and a sense of meaning and purpose that connects your staff to their campers\, leaders\, and each other.\nYou will be given resources to develop a customizable self-care plan and training for your staff.\n\n\n\n**Participants will earn 3 CECs for their full participation in the seminar** \n\nAbout the Presenters \nErin Urban is a certified Executive Coach & Career Accelerator helping emerging and evolving leaders remove career roadblocks\, unlock their potential\, and elevate their careers. She is an international speaker\, behavioral scientist\, and the host of the Career Coffee Chat Podcast.
