What to Expect at a Summit
It’s a full day exploring the topics that are the most relevant to you!
This is an alternative style conference. Instead of lectures, we’ll use a collaborative conference technique called “open space” to build an agenda together that addresses attendee’s specific questions, concerns, challenges and ideas.
The small breakout group structure of the event allows you to connect with like-minded folks with similar interests to swap best practices and brainstorm solutions together.
In the past, attendees have come ready to discuss topics like:
- How to recruit coaches
- Managing teenagers
- Best practices for specific classes (parent & tot, boys, etc)
- Getting creative with theme weeks
- Level systems & progress reports
- Adaptive & inclusive programming
- Hosting special events
- Spicing up camp programs
- Marketing ideas
- Motivating coaches to be awesome
- Systems for making the job less chaotic
- … and more!
Topics always depend on what the attendees want to discuss!
We’ve done dozens of Open Space events over the years. Each one is completely unique, but the content is always rich with practical strategies and creative solutions.
Plus, leading rec programs can feel isolating at times.
Come meet like-minded people to swap best practices, share ideas and hopefully realize that you aren’t quite as “alone on the island” after all!
