As space is limited to around 20 participants\, we can only accommodate one director per camp at this time.) \nWe know that building community with colleagues from a variety of camps throughout New England will help you feel supported as you move forward in your camping career. Join us for a series of monthly facilitated discussions (October to May) where you’ll have the opportunity to share ideas and resources\, get feedback\, troubleshoot challenges\, and explore opportunities in a safe and professional space. \nTopics will be flexible based on the group’s needs/interests\, but discussions in prior years have included: \n\nBuilding & supporting your team: recruiting\, hiring\, compensation & benefits\, retention\, training\, evaluation\nBehind-the-scenes: risk management\, budgeting\, technology\, marketing\nBeing a leader: time management\, hard decisions\nMental\, emotional\, and social health (MESH): policies\, best practices\, resources\, self-care\nCamp culture and tradition: exploring the “why\,” innovating\nParent engagement: handbooks\, communication\, recruitment\n\nEmily Golinsky\, Founder of Bright Moose Training\, Consulting & Advocacy\, former Executive Director at Camp Starfish and a member of ACA\, New England’s New Camp Director Workshop faculty\, will facilitate the sessions. Her role will be to encourage participant-led discussions\, provide resources\, offer observations and insights\, all while keeping the conversation and session flow going! \nThis series is not designed to be a how-to\, but an interactive discussion-based opportunity for directors looking to build their professional network and resource sharing as leaders.
