From: Let’s Play Nicely: Eight Tips for Creating Safe Spaces at Camp

"The journey to inclusive and safe camp spaces may feel overwhelming and uncomfortable — and therefore a reason not to embark on that trek at all. But show up anyway. Turn onto the wide-open road, and take steps that are authentic to your leadership and camp’s vibe. Employ a growth mindset to allow the support of your fellow directors, camp leadership and staff, parents and campers — and every other friend who loves your camp — to guide you on the great expedition ahead.

Practice empathetic listening. Listen more than you talk, and bring empathy into the conversation. Eliminate any defensive reaction.

Be curious and learn about your fellow staff. If we come together, we can learn from each other.

Assume good intentions. Should we make a mistake, we need to own it. Saying, “I’m sorry” is a great start to making good and fostering safety and change. Again, eliminate defensiveness.

Challenge comfort zones. Each of our comfort zones looks different. Challenge your staff and leaders to broaden their own zone.

Employ courage to get uncomfortable and learn about bias. Biases exist. Mistakes happen. Difficult interactions occur. Through all of the previous moments, growth blossoms.

Encourage relationship building. Model and support positive, meaningful, and trusting relationships by listening and learning from each other.

Institute an “open gazebo” policy. Keep the lines of communication open, safe, and nonjudgmental.

Celebrate uniqueness. Each individual’s uniqueness is to be respected, appreciated, and valued."

The article follows a scenario involving a white camper's comment about a Black counselor's hair. It includes the steps taken after the incident by the camp director, from debriefing the counselor to calling the parent. The article focuses on aggressions and microagressions directed at staff. I think the article is worth the read, especially if you are at a camp where your staff diversity does not match your camper diversity.

DP x DC Camp

The Batfam force Damian to go to summer camp to socialize with kids his own age and have some normal childhood experiences

That’s all well and good, but normal does not describe his cabin’s councilor, one Daniel “for the love of Ancients call me Danny” Fenton

Between the son of the bat and a Fenton, camp is going to be weird

#danny phantom #dp x dc #dp x dc crossover #dp x dc prompt #danny fenton #dpxdc #writing prompt #writing #detective comics #camp counselor Danny #putting on the pep and trying to manage a group of 13 year olds #or ten #dealers choice DC timeline is a pain to deal with #Damian has gone from 10-14 I think? meanwhile Tim is still 17 #and yes I know Danny went to space camp #but to be fair a more traditional camp experience would probably be more story convenient #and he’s been camping #with his family #that’s not even counting his mom going full marine in enemy territory survivalist mode #Danny is going to have some weirdly specific camping skills is what I’m saying

something about the first few episodes of the terror having so many numbers. the men, the provisions, the inventory; but also the tension of counting. the scene where goodsir takes a picture of john franklin and his men and he's counting down the seconds. the lashes being counted down during hickey's punishment. and something about how in later episodes, numbers get lost. dates get forgotten. counting just stops. all of it becomes insignificant. like it was a countdown at first but now the time is just running out instead

#the terror #the terror amc #just some thoughts #loved the tension this show managed to build with countdowns and numbers #especially the countdowns that happened in real time like the ones mentioned #i was stressed out of my mind counting down seconds along with mr. goodsir #and i was counting in sheer shock during hickey's lashing #technically i know not all numbers went away; they still count guns in the camp later on for example #but the way they talk about food for one. the way at some point it switches from every can being accounted for #to 'we're mostly down to biscuits‚ tea and chocolate' #because the numbers don't matter anymore; all that matters it's that it is not enough #i dunno man!! numbers! i love when numbers and countdowns are utilized well to bring more horror and tension to the situation! #ren.txt

Providing more than just a roof.

In displacement situations or the aftermath of a disaster, safe and adequate shelter is essential for the immediate survival of affected people. It is also critical to protect their privacy and dignity and to support their resilience to future shocks and hazards.

Shelter assistance takes various forms, from individual housing to the use of public buildings, such as schools, to large emergency tented camps. Whatever the set-up, shelter specialists make sure that displaced communities (and often those who host them) receive more than just shelter and life-saving assistance, such as water, food and hygiene items.

They also try to ensure that displaced people do not have to walk too far to get food, water or medical care, and that water points and latrines are well-lit and close to homes, especially so that girls and women are not exposed to danger.

In 2021, over 6.6 million people received shelter support across 13 countries.

In 2021, over 1,500 local actors were trained on Camp Coordination and Camp Management across 17 countries.

Y'know the donation book in camp? The handwriting in it looks to be like Arthur's when he isn't writing in cursive, which makes sense since not everyone is able to read cursive, but that would mean that he's the one writing everything down so that means other gang members are telling him what they added to the pot and how much it was worth and I just KNOW at least one person got their ass beat for bringing a bat wing for 25 cents while Arthur is jumping into abandoned railway cars from cliff edges to get two gold bars.

#I'd be fucking pissed #like so angry #i wonder how the camp managed when Arthur needed those few weeks of recovery after the O'Driscolls #he's literally the only thing holding them together #rdr2 #red dead redemption 2 #arthur morgan

I wish I could be friends with camp staff like I could when I was camp staff, but I can't, because at the end of the day I'm their boss and you gotta have boundaries so you're not the creepy manager saying, "we're all a family," with no standing to give constructive feedback.

It's done! The final piece of my Dinluke big bang collab with the most inspiring @coriesocks! The whole wonderful and heart warming fic is up already so go go read I know places (where we can hide)! (This piece is for chapter 7!)

Great big shoutout to my author for being so kind, patient and supportive throughout this whole journey. I could not have hoped for a better partner!

Thank you all for your support and I hope you've all enjoyed all the fantastic work (compiled here!) that's come from artists and writers alike in this event, as much as I have <3

Better a little late than never right? #Actually so impressed I managed to finish all 3 pieces with as much detail as I pictured honestly this is a first for me! #The mood for this was already set before of course but having spent the last two weekends camping #specifically in a hammock under a tarp in the rain just like this makes this so lovely and personal too #Genuinely reflecting on starting all these in like June and finally being done and happy with them is wild I'm not sure I even believed it
