Does One Week Make a Difference? • Motivational • The right speaker can be very motivational and inspiring. Things to look for in a speaker: • Qualifications: • Heart for Abused Kids • Has a story to tell that’s emotional and gratifying and has the ability to tell it with heart. • Use interviewing if the person is not comfortable giving a short talk.
Does One Week Make a Difference? • Motivational • Ideas for Resource People or Speakers • Your own counselors or staff: • Select two or three of your own people who have been at camp for 3 or more years. Everyone has a SOTO. Start with them or disperse them throughout the day. • Your Pastor if he/she has been to camp or any church staff member • Social Worker who Knows RFKC • Group Home Director who has had kids at camp • Private Care Person • Foster Parents • A Caregiver like a grandmother • Any community leader who has interacted with RFKC • FORMER CAMPER (Usually interviewing works best)

Additional Director Team Ideas • The Tallest Tower • Instructions • The goal for this exercise is to have your team build the Tallest Tower with the 50 index cards you have been given. Here are the rules. • You will be given 8 minutes to plan how to build your tower. • You will have 5 minutes for actual construction. • While you plan you MAY NOT DAMAGE THE CARDS IN ANY WAY, but you MAY SPEAK. • While you build you MAY NOT SPEAK to each other. • The team with the Tallest Tower wins. • Take 5 minutes to have the team debrief
Additional Director Team Ideas • Debrief • Appoint a spokesperson to facilitate the team to discuss these questions and share with the whole group if called upon to do so. • What behavior/actions helped the group accomplish the task? • What behaviors/actions hindered the group in completing the task? • How did leadership emerge on the team? • How is your team feeling about your tower? • Did you remember IT’S PROCESS NOT PRODUCT?!!!
What We Need at Camp to Create Positive Memories • Personality Type Groups Team Building Exercise • Form groups of up to twelve with the same personality type assigned to different areas around the training facility. Over all exercise time 45 to 60 minutes. • Supplies: • Banner paper cut in 12 foot lengths. Could be rolled and tied with construction tape. 1 banner per group. • One set of 6 to 8 colored marking pens per group. • One set of instructions per group. • If you use Power Point, a slide with the instructions on the screen for all the groups to review. • Instructions: • Go to your designated area with your supplies. • Appoint a spokesperson to read the instructions. • Read the Instructions. • (This is kind of a Pictionary model without guessing and each person thinks up their own “What We Need at Camp” picture to draw.)
What We Need at Camp to Create Positive Memories • Our team has 13 minutes to complete this exercise once the instructions have been read and a short discussion (no longer than 2 minutes) takes place to make sure everyone knows what to do. • DO NOT share what you plan to draw with the team. WE need to decide the order for who draws when. If our team has 12 members everyone draws one “What We Need at Camp” picture on the banner. • If our team only has 4 members then each person would draw 3 different things. EVERY banner must contain 12 “What We Need at Camp” pictures. If there are 6 team members then everyone will draw 2 and so on. • One team member cannot draw for other team members.
What We Need at Camp to Create Positive Memories • Our team is on the HONOR SYSTEM, we need to appoint someone to time the 13 minutes. • Each person gets one minute to draw their “What We Need at Camp.” • When your minute is up and our team time keeper calls time, you must stop even if you are not finished. The next team member starts drawing and is timed. Change team members quickly. There is a built in time allotment of five seconds between team members. • Each person should have in their mind three or four things they could draw in case the person in front of you draws what you were planning. • Any questions? We now have two minutes to get a time keeper. Also select another time keeper, for when the time keeper has his turn to draw. We need to decide our drawing order and how to handle the colored markers most efficiently. • At the end of two minutes our first drawer should begin his or her one minute picture. If our team members have to draw more than one picture because there are not 12 of us, take turns don’t draw more than one at a time.
What We Need at Camp to Create Positive Memories • READ these after the banner is finished • You now have 10 minutes to have everyone tell: • What you drew. • Why do you think it needs to be at camp? • How were you feeling about your drawing skills? • GROUP DEBRIEF: • Discuss how our campers feel when we encourage them to do things outside of their skills or confidence level and conversely what they might feel within their skills/confidence level. • Ask one of each color group to share their banners and tell what they experienced that the campers might also feel.
