Staff training is going to be a great time of training, community building, and work. Parts of camp have been closed since last summer, so we will need to clean and open them back up. We will also be training on all of the awesome activities and policies you will need to know about for the summer. Last, we have some really fun activities that will help us to get to know each other’s names and grow together as a community.
