Check it out! The Camp Cast features the latest on people, ideas and events in the world of camp and youth development. The Camp Cast is about business and fun. In each show, we discuss topics that range from managing people and money to designing a program and telling a joke. Tune in today through iTunes or http://www.thecampcast.com.
There are no set rules on what makes someone a YP. There is no age limit either way! Some YPs have been working in camp full time for a few years, while some are still seasonal. Some are coming from other jobs in other industries. YP is a self-selecting group. If you want resources as you transition into a camp career or want to help ACA create those resources for YPs, then you are in the right place.

Hi Everyone~
I was just checking out the ACA site and looking at the info for the National conference since last year I got a late start…I am hoping to find some other people that are going or are interested in going to the conference. In case you don’t know and are a still a student, they are allowing full-time student members to attend the sessions and exhibits for FREE, so excited about that and the membership rate has gone down as well I think to $35(think it was $50 last year.) Last year I waited too long and couldn’t get a room at the resort the conference was held at and would like to not repeat that mistake, although I must give a thanks to Sam and his group for taking my roomie and I under their wing a bit! So I thought I’d start this so that maybe we can get more of us at this year’s event. Thanks, hope you all have a excellent week.
