We are so grateful to @erickamporter from Rise Up Training and Consulting for walking our seasonal staff through crucial topics in her "Be a Good Human: Addressing Bias, Discovering Intersectionality, & Cultivating Belonging" workshop! 👏 This workshop addresses the damaging effects of implicit bias, explores the powerful influence of intersectionality in DEI efforts, and starts building a genuine sense of belonging. 🫶
Through this training, our seasonal staff are now empowered as a team (and individually) to redefine what it means to be a truly good human in the workplace. Thanks to Ericka, our seasonal staff are well-prepared to be good humans and make our theme, "You Belong Here", come to life every day of camp. ❤️

Introducing our Super Duper Superheroes wall in Trent’s Cookhouse to recognize and honor individuals who have dedicated 10+ years of service to Roundup River Ranch. 🫶 It’s still a work in progress, but we just couldn’t wait to share! 😍
True camp legends! 👏

Yesterday was the BEST. DAY. EVER! 🥳 Our full-time, year-round staff were "campers" for the day, while our seasonal staff put their skills to use. After many days of training, they were able to practice what they`ve learned during an afternoon of fun! ☀️
Cabin groups went to Activity blocks to enjoy the Challenge Course, Boating, Archery, and Art! 🎨 Then Cabin Leaders prepared a cabin night activity to do with their group ranging from crafts, to candle chats, to scavenger hunts, and more! We ended the day all together with a Carnival - filled with face painting, the dunk tank, tie-dying, cotton candy, and lots of laughter. 🫶
It was a fun-filled day for our seasonal and full-time team to spend time together while preparing for upcoming camp sessions! ❤️

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and here at Roundup River Ranch we know how important mental health is. 💚 That is why yesterday our seasonal staff spent the day doing Youth Mental Health First Aid training with SpeakUpReachOut.
Through this training, they are now certified mental health first-aiders through the @nationalcouncil. We recognize the importance of mental health education and the role we can play in the lives of the children we serve, which is why this training was so important for our seasonal staff who provide direct care to our campers all summer long.
Here at Roundup River Ranch, we create an environment for our campers to practice resilience and build relationships. These are considered protective factors, which actually counteract risk factors and Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)! From prevention, to intervention, to postvention, they are prepared to recognize signs and symptoms of a mental health crisis and assess how to help our campers.
HUGE thanks to Walter, Darla, and Kirby with @speakupreachoutec for leading our seasonal staff through the course and for making this training possible. #YouthMentalHealth #MentalHealthEducation #MentalHealthFirstAid
