<DIV>Kara,</DIV>
<DIV>That is quite a task to undertake.</DIV>
<DIV>I never supervised kids when in church stuff, but I did do missions work;
for instance, I went to bethany center to serve food.</DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>I have trouble as well knowing a large group of
voices. I suggest asking the girls to do a few things to help you out. I would
think most would comply especially if it’s a church group because I’m assuming
parents raised them to be respectful to all; you know the golden rule found in
Mark and matthew.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>Have activities planned you can follow; the
auditory kind. I’m not sure what the camp does. But if you have flexibility in
planning, pick ones more structured so you don’t have girls running everywhere.
For instance, circle games come to mind.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>Also board games can be adapted for you to play
along.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>Ask the girls to state their names when speaking
to you. Walk around to supervise them. If leading them from a cabin or dorm, or
whereever they stay, do a count ahead of time so as not to leave anyone. This
can be calling names verbally and they respond with saying “here” or
“present”.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>I did tutoring of kids and listened to them read
during college.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>As to knowing if girls need help, walk around and
listen for signs of hesitancy; you can also ask them something like, “how are
things over here? Do you have any questions?”</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>I hope you can contribute more. In large crowded
activities, I also miss cues that allert me to what needs to be done, so I
miss out on helping as no one will tell me to assist them if I ask.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3 face=Calibri>Good luck!</FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>Hi everyone,<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>My name is Kara, and I just found about about this group a
couple of months ago. I am excited to become involved. I am a youth leader
in my church. One of my responsibilities is to help plan and then to go to
girls’ camp with about 35 girls. I have done this in the past, but, I am
looking for ideas as to how I can make this a better experience. In the past,
the actual camp has been very stressful for me, mostly because I don’t feel like
I am as effective as I could be. I spend most of my time just figuring out who
is who and trying to find places where I can help. I miss cues that could alert
me to trouble or a girl who needs a little extra help.
Has anyone been in this type of situation? Any ideas?<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p></o:p> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Thanks<o:p></o:p></P>
