- Funding Character Development at Camp: Steps and Strategies for Successful Grant-Writing
The purpose of this workshop is to equip participants with the skills to successfully apply for grants to support their camp mission. With a specific focus on the Character at Camp grant program (opening January 2025), participants will learn the steps and skills necessary for applying for basic grants, including how to find grants, how to tell if they're aligned with your needs, components of a basic grant application, and what happens next if you do or do not receive a grant. - Character Development at Camp: What it is and How to Get There
The purpose of this workshop is to understand what character is (and what it's not!) from the perspective of science of learning & development. With this knowledge, participants will identify specific character development goals for their campers and staff and develop a road map for achieving those outcomes through staff training, program design, and parent and community engagement.
