GATHER TOWN TIPS + TRICKS
Day 1
November 24, 2020
To be a leader of faith requires a healthy soul. You cannot lead people beyond where you currently live. I will identify four key principles of care of the soul which will include transferrable principles for how to pass this on to your team and those you influence.
We know that that our ability to effectively pursue our mission, is to develop effective teams. These 6 tasks, or foundations may not be all we need for effective teams, but they are necessary, and a good place to start.
Mary and Martha are often held in contrast, but is it possible to learn from both these women’s examples as we seek to maintain our household while sitting at Jesus’ feet and bringing others to him?
What is the correct board structure for a Not for Profit camp? Policy and Governance only? Operational? What does that even mean, and what’s the appropriate mix? And who gets to decide, anyway? As a Chartered Director, I may have some guidance you’ll find helpful as you navigate these questions.
Your frontline camp leaders are best positioned to say to campers, “Follow my example as I follow the example of Christ.” We will discuss how best to prepare camp leaders to tell the good story of Jesus by word and deed, calling campers to a lifetime of faith in him.
Our experience in ministry seldom reflects our pre-planned budget perfectly. However, remember when our activity plans in our budget was close to what occurred? How do you budget in a time when your very activities and method of program delivery could be prohibited with little notice?
In any experiential program, it’s a good rule of thumb to create a little connection with your group members before diving into content. This conference will be no different! Please join us and conference attendees from other camps for a a Virtual Scavenger Hunt experience. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to work in small groups of 3-4 people to solve clues and zip around the internet utilizing teamwork and collaboration. Michelle Cummings of Training Wheels will facilitate a fun hour of connection and creativity in the virtual space.
You probably already know that converting regular activities into virtual activities isn’t as simple as just finding an online meeting room to use. There are many additional things to consider and it requires some creativity, reimagining and redesigning, all while keeping the integrity of the program intact. Join Michelle Cummings for an hour of learning and laughing as she demonstrates multiple Virtual Team Building Activities.
A fundraising plan is how you raise the money you spend. It is often confused with a budget, which is how you spend the money you raise. Both documents work in conjunction with one another. You likely have a budget, but do you have a good fundraising plan? This workshop will help you look back and see the way forward. Using a refreshed step-by-step toolkit, this workshop will show you how to create a plan: * Built on God’s provision and embedded with an appreciation for the generosity of your champions* Using meaningful methods and measures* You can live with and work with year after year
