BRAINSTORM, our annual user conference, is on October 16th-18th. We will have adjusted support hours during that time.

As you have started to plan for your new seasons of camp, we at CampBrain are as well. Our Business Development Team of Jared, Jeff and Myself will be on the road once again attending 35+ conferences, presenting our Admins Unite Session at conferences.

As one might expect, our company’s “year” revolves around the summer. August 31 is our fiscal year end and it represents the closing of one season and the start of a new one. As we begin a new season, Rob would like to reflect back on a few items from the last one.

We have a few ideas to get you rolling into the 2020 season on a good note.

In July, Miriam joined a #a11yTO seminar to learn how to improve the accessibility of our digital world. Along the way she learned about the Digital Accessibility Maturity Model, The Little Engine That Could, Equality vs. Equity vs Liberation, and much more.

2019 was a very special year with significant changes to the way the Hall operates. With 5 total inductees and 2 new ways to enter the Hall, it was understandably an electric atmosphere. It was amazing to see all the positivity in the community and all the energy around each nominee.

There is a wide variety of camp administrators. Part time, full time, multiple location, and admins who are directors, facilities managers, and food service directors (the ones who do it all). To recognize a more diverse group of administrators, we are introducing two new ways to be inducted into the Camp Admin Hall of Fame.

With the holidays right around the corner, many of our staff will be taking some well-earned time off this December. We will always have enough people in the office to support you during the holidays, but there will be a few adjustments to our regular support hours.

The Women in Camp Summit is a conference by women, for women, that covers a diverse set of topics in the camping industry, with a focus on visibility, voices, and vision. It is the first of its kind and was held this year from November 7th to 9th at Pheasant Run Resort in Illinois.
