2. • Wanting to do something new with your kids this summer? Are you
budgeting and wanting to save some money in summer? Well, parents
out there would be glad to know that it isn’t as daunting to start your
own summer camp as you may think. All it takes is the collective
effort of a few interested parents, to organize a camp custom tailored
to meet the needs of kids as well as parents.
• Parents consistently ask our school administration and staff on how
they can continue to be involved with their children during summer
months. So, we’ve pulled together a few simple steps to get them
started with their own summer camp.
3. Spread the Word
• To start with, round up your neighborhood. Spread the idea of summer camp
for kids and find out who all is interested.
• Conduct a community meeting or have door-to-door visits to get parents
involved.
4. Decide on Your Location
• As soon as the idea of organizing a summer camp strikes your mind, embark
on your location-hunt.
• Starting beforehand will make sure you get enough time to select a suitable
location for camping.
• If you live in a housing society, there must be a communal space where you
can get your kids camping.
• In addition, you can look for neighborhood churches, camping resorts,
community centers, parks and other organizations that offer rental spaces for
meetings and events.
5. Have a Theme
• Figuring out what all is going to happen at your camp is a vital consideration.
Pick a theme for each day and decide on fun and learning activities
accordingly.
• Creating a schedule for different activities and the day is another must-do.
• What’s more, have well-defined rules to keep things organized and running as
scheduled.
6. Choosing Campers and the Staff
• Once you’ve decided on your location and other factors, it’s time to look for
the camp staff.
• Include parents who wish to volunteer and can handle varied departments like
meals, financial part, fun activities and hygiene and sanitation. Additionally,
you can hire outsiders for roles like teen counselling and kids training for your
camp.
• And here’s one last advice, try to be a kid yourself when in camp and nothing
would thrill your kids more.
