Synopsis

Role-playing is an easy way to create engaging, informative, and inspiring sessions during your Staff Training at the start of the summer. Unlike traditional role-playing, the situations to be covered in this session will come with two descriptions: one for the Camper (sometimes Campers), and one for the Counselor. In almost all challenging situations with campers, counselors do not know everything affecting a camper's thoughts and actions. With dual descriptions, the audience (counselors at orientation) and "Campers"(roles acted out by selected staff) will have a greater insight into what is happening, than the Counselor (a volunteer from the audience) arriving on the scene to resolve the problem. It makes the role-playing more realistic.... and entertaining. These sessions are designed to get all of your staff involved-from the 20-year veterans in leadership positions to the 17-year-old first-timers. Contained in this book are over 100 role-playing situations covering a broad range of camp situations and a step-by-step process for running the training from preparation to debriefing.
