Prioritize to Stabilize - Let’s get ready for the summer!Up north here in Canada, our friends on the west coast are already enjoying fantastic outdoor spring weather and golf. In Ontario, we continue to be fooled that spring is here with warm weather followed by another dumping of snow, but one thing is for certain; spring is around the corner. What that really means is that the camp season is quickly approaching so we as camp leaders need to start pretty for staff training (if we haven’t already started!)
In this episode, Beth, Gabz and Ruby are here to remind us of all the things we should be doing to help us better prepare for camp. Below are some of the topics covered, and to know why they are important, you will have to listen to what our camp pros are saying!
This list will get you started:

Best Practice for Leadership TrainingFrom Ruby:
This practice is borrowed from Organize 365 and is called the Sunday Basket. Put a basket in your office that is all of those maintenance tasks, bills, correspondence, subscription renewals. Throughout the week, fill that basket and on Sunday (or your day of choice), go through and do all of those tasks. This saves you the mental guilt of “I should be doing this task” because you have set a time later in life to do it!
