SUMMARY:From Ally to Co-Conspirator: An Anti-Racism Lab for Camp Leaders
DESCRIPTION:This session is for leaders ready to move from passive allyship to active co-conspiracy in the fight against racism at camp. We begin by clearly defining this crucial shift\, which requires using your voice\, power\, and resources to challenge and change systems. This is a lab\, not a lecture\, focused on building your practical toolkit for intervention and advocacy. You will practice interrupting microaggressions in real-time\, discuss how to advocate for anti-racist policies in hiring\, budgeting\, and power structures\, and policy shifts that you can push out tomorrow that will show your community that you’re walking the talk. Leave this session empowered with the confidence and concrete skills to act as a genuine co-conspirator for your staff of color.

SUMMARY:Alumni Development Roundtable: What Camps Can Learn from University Models and One Another
DESCRIPTION:While camps foster deep connections\, building a formal alumni association often remains a challenge. This session opens the floor for a moderated discussion on your camp’s alumni plan\, whether it’s a full-fledged association or non-existent. Be prepared to share your current strategies\, hopeful future plans\, past successes or mistakes\, and more. Cory will share some of his lessons from conversations with the CEO of the Clemson University Alumni Association to get things started. This is an opportunity to learn from peers as we discuss how to turn camper nostalgia into active\, lifelong belonging.

SUMMARY:Orientation Overload: Rethinking Timing and Training through Executive Functioning
DESCRIPTION:Orientation sets the tone for the whole summer—but when it’s crammed into a few exhausting days\, staff forget more than they retain. That’s an executive functioning issue: too much information\, not enough building blocks and scaffolding. This session shows how to structure orientation so that staff actually absorb and apply what matters. The result: more confident staff\, less mid-summer chaos\, and smoother camper experiences.

SUMMARY:Beyond Diversity: Building Brave and Inclusive Camp Spaces for Black and Brown Youth
DESCRIPTION:Creating inclusive camp spaces for Black and Brown youth requires more than good intentions. It demands self-reflection\, cultural humility\, and active redesign of camp culture. This interactive workshop will guide camp professionals through an honest exploration of how camp norms\, traditions\, and leadership structures can unintentionally exclude or alienate campers of color. Participants will identify common barriers to belonging\, unpack their own implicit biases\, and learn practical strategies for building camp environments that affirm every child’s identity. Using storytelling\, reflection\, and design activities\, participants will leave with tangible tools and an actionable plan to foster belonging and trust with campers\, families\, and staff of color.

SUMMARY:Let’s Keep Our Hands to Ourselves
DESCRIPTION:The camp experience is all about building relationships\, meeting new people\, making friends\, and finding oneself. But what happens when lines are blurred and boundaries are crossed? How do camps navigate what is appropriate and inappropriate\, and manage and respond to boundary violations and peer conflict? Using real examples from camp\, this session will dive into what happens when campers cross lines\, how Counselors and Directors respond\, how to assess and manage risk\, and what happens next.

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:Edible Weather: Turning Stormy Days into STEM Days
DESCRIPTION:When the weather changes\, camp doesn’t have to stop – it can transform.\nIn this lively\, hands-on workshop\, meteorologist Jason Frazer introduces Edible Weather\, a creative STEM-based activity that helps campers understand how weather affects their lives using food as a teaching tool. \nParticipants will explore simple\, no-heat experiments like the Tornado Trail Mix and Rain in a Cup\, designed for rainy-day programming or weather delay periods. These interactive lessons not only engage campers in STEM learning but also reduce anxiety around storms and reinforce weather safety concepts.
