Episode 90 | Deepening Character Work at Camp with Bob Ditter


Listen Later

In this episode, we are joined once again by Bob Ditter, alongside ACA's own Alicia Danenberg and Laurie Pearson to discuss character work at camp. 

Tune in as they explore how camps can affirm and expand the character-building work they’re already doing. They discuss what “character” really means in a camp context, how to define and live out your camp’s values as staff, and ways to create an environment where kids and staff alike feel a deep sense of belonging and growth.

Whether you’re a camp director, program leader, or staff trainer, this conversation will leave you inspired and equipped to make your camp community even stronger.
