I was honoured to be asked to be the keynote speaker at the Society of Camp Director's spring meeting. I spoke about how social media is really just story telling.
If summer camps can get good at telling their stories then social media is quite simple.

in the 1930’s when my grandfather was a camper\n
fragments from friends\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
in the 1950’s when my mom was a camper\n
\n
getting the word out involved the noise and that unique smell of the Gestetner. Raise a hand if you can still smell the Gestetner\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
in the 1970’s when I was a camper\n
\n
still involved getting light headed under a single, bare light bulb in a back closet in the camp office\n
_Holiday_ cards\n
slideshow at your neighbourhood club or your synagogue\n
and if you were really lucky\n
and if you were really lucky\n
and if you were really lucky\n

\n
\n
\n
in this decade when my young friend Declan goes to Tawingo\n
\n
despite all of the great things we do at camp, I am terrified that....\n
\n
\n
and we have one solution. luckily it’s something that we are great at.\n
\n
should we tell our stories?\n
because every kid should go to camp\n
we need to tell the camp story in such a compelling way that EVERY parent will move mountains to get their kid to go to camp - just like they will do for hockey, cheerleading and math tutoring\n
We need to tell the story of how camp is the remedy for ...\n
\n
\n
how we teach kids to \n
how we teach kids to \n
\n
\n
\n
\n
It allows us to Tell Our Stories\n
\n
\n
\n
A Platform perfectly suited for people who have interesting stories to tell and who grew up in a culture of Telling stories\n
70% of adult Canadian belong to Facebook\n\nand they will help you tell your story\n
and they will help you tell your story\n
and they will help you tell your story\n
not to publish your splishy-splashy promotional video (the one that everyone else has with the kids splashing in the water) - but be creative and show off what it is about your camp that is totally unique to you. \n
and they will help you tell your story\n
interview staff and see what they are like even if they can’t join us for interview day\n- record a conversation with an alumn who is doing amazing things - the would love to have their story featured on their camp’s website \n
try this - for a 1-time cost of less than $100 you can have an online radio show - aka podcast that will draw in your client families from across the world\n
