It is our experience that when these events are carried out in the order described, and the youth staff is trained and prepared in the manner described elsewhere in this book, that these development experiences will lead to a top-notch summer camp program. This schedule has been derived from eight years' practical experience and from the study of numerous calendars prepared by many people over 39 years. It hopefully represents the best thinking of all of them. The youth staff develop each year's week-long summer camp program, relying on the adults' guideance and the youth's previous experience. An example of a previous year's summar camp program is available upong request.
