Fluchel, Robert W.; Gregory, Charles A.
Briefly summarized is the American Camping Association's Camp Ecological Training Project, its goals, accomplishments, problems, and future potential as seen by the first two Itinerant Ecologists who participated in the project. Creation of an ecological awareness and conservation consciousness were the major goals of the project. To accomplish these, the Itinerant Ecologists visited 29 selected camps to help develop their ecology nature programs and assist in educating the staff. A few of the activities conducted, training methods or techniques utilized, and suggestions offered for further program and staff development are mentioned together with an evaluation of Director response to the program and counselor interest. Additional comments are made regarding scheduling and communication, financial aspects, vehicles, equipment, and future programming. (BL)
