Happy Camper Corner! 

Each month, we'll share some news from prominent camping associations or tips and tricks for our counselors. This month enjoy two articles shared on the ACA website.

Instilling a Sense of Belonging from Day One

Anthony Kane talks about the importance of making sure campers are welcomed from the very beginning of Camp and how it can impact their experience. This article is a great example of working smarter not harder when it comes to making sure campers start off on the right foot.

Introverts at Camp: What You Should Know

Marcia Ellett speaks to how to best incorporate introverts into Camp as well as common misconceptions about introverts. Learn to differentiate between when kids need a push to socialize and when they may be perfectly happy doing their own thing. 

Scentsy Rock-A-Thon!

Thank you to all of the volunteers who helped at the Scentsy Rock-A-Thon on September 9th! You all did a phenomenal job! We raised $266,858.89, which was even more than we were hoping for. Thank you for all of your help!

Blake's Bulletin

A new structure has popped up at Hidden Paradise! Turns out we have a prototype cabin in the works so we can decide what we want new cabins to look like!

I'm taking my supervisory role very seriously and everyone working on the project is properly sniffed and greeted. Learn more about Hidden Paradise at healingidaho.org!
