Camp Administrator Course in Cooperation with the NRPA, October 10, 2006
Youth development professionals in recreation and parks, attending the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) Congress and Exposition in Seattle, may register for a half-day pre-conference, “New Camp Administrator Orientation.”  The course is adapted from the New Director Orientation and will have a day camp focus.  ACA and NRPA members may register at a reduced rate. Register today!

Sections Offer Basic Camp Director Course in Four Locations
Directors have multiple options to take the Basic Camp Director Course (BCDC) in 2006/2007. The BCDC provides the basics and more for camp directors with fewer than six years of experience or for seasoned program directors and site managers. This is an excellent opportunity to be sure you have well-rounded knowledge of the core areas and to begin a personal network of camp professionals. Course size is limited. We encourage potential participants to register early.
