The Timeline
Its important to develop a timeline of what should happen and
when it will happen. We've put together a rough idea of a timeline.
Of course you will need to add things or take things out, according
to the policies and procedures of your particular organization.
Don't be worried if you are starting a little late – with
some work a camp experience can be put together in just a few
weeks.
