I am the director at a medium sized day camp. Traditionally we run a full summer program but the last two years finding staff to work the final two weeks of the summer has proven challenging. Most of our staff are college students and they all return to school before our season ends. I was wondering how long other day camps tend to run their sessions, and where you find your staff.
Also, any suggestions for keeping the tone of your setting more camp-like and less school-age-care like would be appreciated. Our base is an indoor facility although we do take field trips to outdoor locations.
