Tri-State Camp Conference- Grit: Developing Perseverance, Self-Control, and a Growth Mindset in your Campers and Staff
Mar 8, 2016 - 8:30 AM – 9:30 AM
2016 Tri State CAMP Conference, Atlantic City Convention Center, Atlantic City
Imagine sitting around a campfire roasting marshmallows and instead of everyone eating the marshmallow immediately, all the campers waited until everyone was ready. What is going on? Your campers demonstrated grit and self-control. In this workshop, we will discuss fundamental and accessible strategies to improve self-control and grit in campers, staff and ourselves. Strategies such as developing a growth mindset, setting oneself up for success and the power of meditation will be discussed and modeled. Get ready to get gritty and to gain tools to be put into practice.
