When visiting camps our team members often notice ideas big and small that other camps might be interested in. Here we have assembled many examples so that everyone can learn from our visits.
→Do you have something you want to share with us that we should feature? Email Ari Polsky with an image and short description.
This update features all things Signage (entry, exit, within camp, values, etc). Not every idea or example will be applicable to every camp, and we are always open to learning about new ideas to feature.
Future updates will be grouped by topic and will include: Facilities, Staff (Training, Management, Lounges), Program Areas, Operations & Logistics, Camper Areas & Care.
