How might (or might not) a union help serve Camp Pros as they navigate an increasingly stressful profession?


At the end of August, a particularly thought-provoking post (  / 4868678183145797  ) was made in the Summer Camp Professionals Facebook group.


After hearing about some of the horror stories of this, and past summers, a pro posted this:


“…Its become clear to me in the last few months that the people in charge of camps are often not the people that run summer camps and this can lead to some wild expectations including around hours, pay, vacation time, parental leave, etc. because the ACA hasn’t put these things in the standards, I’m wondering if having some sort of body to educate people on best practices around expectations for staff would be helpful.”


That pro, was Alana Matteson, and she is our guest this episode to kick off our
new season of both Camp Code and the CampHacker Podcast!


Alana joins Travis and Ruby for this discussion on not just Unions, but the type of advocacy that pros need in general to have more successful, fulfilling and sustainable careers.
