Welcome Back and Welcome To Identity - Beyond Camp #11
We’re back and we’re digging in just as hard as in the summer. First up - our identity - as people and camp pros.
Season 2 of Beyond Camp has arrived! After finishing our first season in what felt like record speed we are excited to be sharing our first conversation of season 2 with all of you. Sit back and relax as we discuss our identities, what they mean to us and how they shape us and why we are dedicating so much time to talking about them. We aren’t experts but we are here to get vulnerable and learn alongside each one of you.
Tune in to this episode to hear about:
Where Cassie and Rachel are at in the fall of 2020
Why the theme of this season is going to be all about identity
How identities carry weight and privilege in different settings
How to learn about identities that we don’t know or relate to?
What do we stand to lose if we don’t talk about identity at camp?
What’s next for Rachel and Cassie?

What is Beyond Camp?
Beyond Camp is a new summer Podcast brought to you by Go Camp Pro.
Cassie Bloy and Rachel Kent are here to explore the intersection of camp and our lives. As much as people like to talk about camp and ‘the real world’ as two separate entities, camp professionals know that this simply isn’t true. Beyond Camp dives into how different aspects of our lives affect our camp experience, effectively bursting the camp bubble and welcoming all parts of our lives into the conversation.
Go Camp Pro is excited to bring you this weekly podcast during the summer of 2020.
