Last week Zoob, Townsend, Hank, and Don all spent some time in Orlando at the American Camp Association’s 2009 National Conference.  The first few days we spent time with a small group of independent camp directors at the Association of Independent Camps gathering.  There were many camps in attendance from all over the U.S.; some of the best camps in the country.  We enjoyed the time networking with other camps and listening to experts and other professionals in the field who shared important information as it pertains to independent camps.  Many of the camps in the area attended the event, including Keystone Camp, Camp Falling Creek, Camp Illahee, Rockbrook Camp and Gwynn Valley Camp, to name a few.

We all came home with ideas and insites to make our programs better, safer, and stronger.  A time well spent.  I can’t wait for the summer to begin!!!
