THE Campers
Ages
Determining which age groups you want to target, or how to divide your campers into the correct age groups, is key to creating a positive camp experience. Whether parents are looking for a few hours of an entertaining activity or several weeks of intentional skill building, participating in a group that is the correct age bracket, allows the child to be comfortable physically and confident socially.
Mast Camp Consulting services include working with you to understand the various age groups, their unique requirements and challenges, and to determine who you will be able to offer the best experience to.
Abilities
Supporting a child’s efforts to reach their goals will create the most meaningful results for the children, their parents, and the summer camp counselors.
Many time in the world of sports, children are asked to “tryout”. That one word is the source of anxiety and angst for the child and the parent. Camps should be about the whole child, not just
The camp counseling services that we offer include looking at the various age groups and helping to create a plan with goals, for your summer camp counselors to achieve.
Spending those first hours/days understanding how the child acts in a team environment, and getting to know who they are, will go a long way into placing children into an appropriate group that matches their ability.
