After months of planning (and millions of other work-related responsibilities getting in the way), my TILTKids Camp debuted this past weekend at Zenda Farm Preserve! Despite a few non-catastrophic hitches (including an ill-timed rainstorm on the second day), it was a huge success – and it was obvious that the kids (and parents/grandparents), had a blast! Not to mention, it was extremely cute to see a few kids put on their TILTKids tee shirts right away on the first day, and almost ALL of them showed up wearing them the second day…
Although my regularly-scheduled KidsTreks are also in full-swing, the Camp was my real “baby” of the summer, as it was part of the larger TILTKids program that I developed, which included a new level of membership, complete with educational newsletter, website, tee shirts and access to camp. I was a little nervous that it wouldn’t take off – why pay for a camp when our regular KidsTreks are free? But a couple dozen families, both local and non, saw the value in what I was doing, and the feedback has been incredible!
I feel incredibly validated and am looking forward to where this program goes in the future…
Congrats on the success of the TILTKids Camp! Your hard work has paid off.
Thank you! It was immensely satisfying to see everything come together…and I’m still hearing great feedback from the community!
