SUMMARY:AI Playground: Hands-On Tools for Camp Professionals
DESCRIPTION:Curious about AI but not sure where to start? Already experimenting but want to go deeper? Pull up a chair at the AI Playground\, a roundtable session designed for camp professionals at every comfort level. Six tables\, six AI tools\, six real camp scenarios. Each table is hosted by a camp professional who will walk you through a live demo of an AI tool solving a problem you actually face: drafting parent emails\, generating staff training materials\, building a rainy day craft project from a photo of your supply closet\, creating a custom camp song\, and more. No tech background required. Pick a table\, watch a demo\, ask questions\, and rotate to try a second tool. You will leave with practical skills you can use this summer and a handout with links and prompts to keep experimenting on your own. \nHosted by the Tech at Camp Affinity Group. This session is for all levels\, from AI-curious beginners to experienced users. Bring a laptop or phone if you have one (but not required).

SUMMARY:The Backward Plan: A Camp Staff Training Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Join fellow camp professionals in an interactive roundtable discussion focused on mastering the “backward planning” approach for designing dynamic and effective camp staff training schedules. \nThis session moves beyond a standard presentation\, offering a collaborative forum for you to share challenges\, swap strategies\, and brainstorm solutions with peers. We will tackle key questions in an open dialogue format:\n• How do you prioritize the most crucial skills staff need by Opening Day?\n• What are innovative ways to integrate essential components like health/safety and camper development into engaging\, hands-on activities?\n• How do we ensure every piece of training content aligns deeply with our unique camp’s mission\, vision\, and values? \nWhether you lead a resident camp or a day camp\, bring your experiences and your toughest questions. Walk away with fresh perspectives\, shared resources\, and a ready-to-implement strategy for transforming your staff training into an empowering experience that fosters a positive\, ready-to-lead team. Active participation and shared expertise are the cornerstones of this session. To get the conversation started\, come ready to share and discuss a few of your best (or worst!) ideas. You’ll have the opportunity to explore the ones you’re most excited or proudest to discuss.

SUMMARY:What Would You Do? Responding to Peer-to-Peer Abuse at Camp
DESCRIPTION:Every camp season brings complex moments that test your judgment and compassion. When campers cross physical or emotional boundaries with one another\, how do you know what counts as peer-to-peer abuse-and when to report it? This interactive\, scenario-based workshop will help you recognize when behavior crosses the line\, determine appropriate follow-up and reporting\, and navigate the difficult conversations that follow. \nTogether\, we’ll explore what behavioral health supports may be needed\, when sending a camper home is appropriate\, and how to communicate transparently and effectively with parents\, staff\, and other stakeholders. Through realistic camp-based case studies\, participants will practice making tough calls and develop strategies for supporting both victims and alleged perpetrators while maintaining trust and safety across your camp community.

SUMMARY:Infusing Character into Camp: It Starts with the Staff
DESCRIPTION:This workshop explores the magic that happens when character is infused throughout camp with intentionality and within a structured framework that supports everyone’s leadership\, seasonal staff\, campers\, and parents. \nThe School Culture and Climate Initiative team will guide you through the benefits of integrating a character focus throughout camp\, what intentionality truly means\, and how to make this a reality. You’ll see specific examples of applying an intentional framework\, including the best ways to ensure seasonal staff and camp leadership are on the same page and walking the talk consistently. \nLeave with a clear picture of what this looks like at your camp and practical tools to implement immediately.

SUMMARY:From Whiteboard to Wakeboard: Building Individualized Camper Schedules
DESCRIPTION:In this session\, Stacy shares strategies and processes for designing individualized activity schedules that honor camper choices for skills-based fun. Follow the process from the whiteboard to the wakeboard as Stacy walks through how the programming team works at Beber Camp\, where 3 out of 5 activity periods a day are choice-based. Stacy will draw from case studies at her camp\, showing how even as technology and AI become more integrated into our scheduling process\, human involvement remains critical. Participants will leave inspired with intentionality behind activity choices and an understanding of the importance of camper feedback while creating customized camper schedules.
