Enrollment Series: All about the Fundamentals


In 2022/2023, JCamp 180 is offering a series of webinars designed to give camp professionals the tools and skills to increase recruitment and retention. The series emphasizes the core elements of enrollment: strong storytelling, top-notch customer service, data-driven decision making, and a great summer program, and will focus primarily on the first three elements. 

This, the first webinar in the series, will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 12, 2 PM Eastern. The session title is It’s all about the Fundamentals: Successful elements of Recruitment & Retention​ and it features Isaac Mamaysky, Founder & Director, Camp Zeke and Becky Metzger, Assistant Camp Director, Camp Ruach-Bridgewater JCC

Registration in the series will include all seven webinars. However, participation in all sessions is NOT required. Join the sessions that are most relevant for you and your camp only. 

The series is designed for all camps: small and large camps; day and overnight camps; camps struggling with retention/recruitment and those doing well and looking to improve.
