Since a few people were able to use my last virtual training on Homesickness, I decided to share all of my virtual trainings. This training is regarding boundaries at summer camp. The training primarily focuses on boundaries that should occur between counselors and campers.
Please feel free to make a copy of the training and adjust it to fit the needs of your camp.
- The training includes the following topics:
- What are professional boundaries
- Why are boundaries important
- Technology and boundaries
- Physical boundaries
- Confidentiality
- Red light, green light, you’re fired scenarios
- Consequences of not respecting boundaries
Everything is based on my experience in the camp field (8+ years) and information from the American Camping Association. The "Red Light, Green Light, You're Fired" scenarios are partially from the book Developing a Counselor-in-Training Program for Camps by Eric Nicastro, Jessica Furrie, and Rachel Saslove. I did change some of the original scenarios.
If you're interested in more trainings, make sure to follow my blog. I will be posting more soon. All of these trainings are a part of an 8 hour virtual training session that I am hoping to use with my new staff.

This is such a helpful resource. Thanks for generously sharing with the Summer Camp Pros community. I'm re-sharing with the leaders in our organization!
