SUMMARY:Urban Day Camp Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Running a camp in the heart of a city comes with its own unique joys and challenges—from limited outdoor space to complex partnerships and ever-changing logistics. But urban camps also have incredible opportunities for creativity\, diversity\, and innovation. \nThis is your chance to connect with other camp professionals who “get it”—those navigating bus routes instead of trails\, school gyms instead of pavilions\, and neighborhoods instead of lakes. Together\, we’ll brainstorm creative solutions\, celebrate wins\, and strengthen the network of urban day camp leaders. \nCome ready to share\, learn\, and leave inspired by what’s possible when we make camp magic happen right in the middle of the city.

SUMMARY:The Other Full-Time Job: Parenting at Camp
DESCRIPTION:Running camp is a 24/7 job\, and so is parenting. For many of us\, those worlds collide every summer as we strive to be fully present for our campers\, our staff\, and our own children. This roundtable is a space to be seen\, heard\, and supported by others who live the same unique experience. \nJoin fellow camp professionals for an open discussion about parenting at camp. The joys\, the guilt\, the boundaries\, and the lessons learned along the way. Together\, we’ll share strategies\, stories\, and small wins while exploring topics such as setting healthy boundaries between “camp parent” and “camp professional”\, hiring and managing staff while parenting in the same environment\, acknowledging and navigating the hard days\, and communicating with your partner when camp consumes your world. \nThis session isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about connection\, laughter\, and learning from one another. Whether you’re a camp director raising kids at camp or thinking about having kids at camp.

SUMMARY:Running an Exemplary Camp Inclusion Program
DESCRIPTION:20% of our campers receive support for additional needs from their school districts. What does your camp do to support and assimilate these children into your program successfully? As a start-up camp\, Liberty Lake embraced children of all abilities—but when the number of children needing support became significant\, they sought out best practices from other programs to create their “Success Program” with accompanying protocols for children with needs in a neurotypical camp environment. Terri and Andy will take you through their process from the camp application to the camp season\, explaining how a high level of intentionality and acceptance adds to the culture and reputation of Liberty Lake.

SUMMARY:Choosing the Right Channel for the Right Message
DESCRIPTION:Your families are bombarded with information in weekly emails\, reminder texts\, social posts\, app notifications\, and more. From time-sensitive alerts to driving excitement for re-enrollment\, let’s explore how to deliver each message in the right place at the right time\, instead of posting everything everywhere. We’ll cover subject line strategies\, image choices\, how to keep recurring messages fresh\, and how to communicate with staff\, many of whom prefer text and Snapchat to email. After small group conversations and workshopping\, you’ll leave with a fresh matrix for deciding what goes where\, plus tips for leveraging underused tools like apps\, countdown clocks\, and content “takeovers” during the off-season.

SUMMARY:From "I Can't Even" to "I've Got This": Coaching Staff Through Camper Burnout
DESCRIPTION:Care fatigue\, empathy erosion\, compassion crash – whatever you call it\, we’ve all seen that “I’m done with this camper” look. Even the most dedicated staff hit a point where patience fades\, frustration rises\, and they feel emotionally tapped out. Join Emily to delve into why staff hit this wall – physiologically\, emotionally\, and relationally – and how leaders can help them regain balance. We’ll explore ways to acknowledge and normalize these moments (without shame!) and discuss practical tools to help staff successfully reset and re-engage. You’ll walk away with clear strategies for keeping staff grounded and effective when their patience runs out…but the camper is still very much there.
