About UsCurrent WDC CORE Team Adult Roles:
The CORE Team meets throughout the year planning for camp. We usually meet every other month - January through July. Some smaller group meetings or zoom/phone planning also occur before training dates and the week of camp. We also meet in September for a 'CORE Debrief' meeting to review that summer's camp, discuss camp reflections/evaluations, and start planning for next year's camp. May is usually the busiest month with our PA Retreat and All Adults Meetings. |
