More Great Tools for
Outstanding Staff Development

Praise for the All-New Volume Two of Training Terrific Staff!
An incredible book! Must be on every camp director’s shelf!”—Kat Shreve, Director of Education, American Camp Association
“I visit over 60 camps a year and I’ve seen how counselors evaluate most staff trainings. Does ‘Too much lecture and not enough interaction!’ and ‘I felt unprepared when the campers arrived,’ sound familiar? And every year we promise ourselves to get it right next year. Well it is next year and this book is the best thing you could ever do for your staff. Read it yourself (it’s funny!), have your key leaders read it (book club!), and delegate your way to your best summer ever.”
—Gary Forster, YMCA of the USA
An absolutely extraordinary resource! These are the best and most practical tools you need to be a master trainer with staff!
—Gwynn M. Powell, Ph.D., Assoc. Prof.,
Recreation and Leisure Studies, University of Georgia
