Meet Byron! He’s been an engineer at Campminder for 20 years (yes, two whole decades!). When he first joined, he was interviewed in our CEO Dan’s apartment—talk about starting small! In this video, Byron talks about what keeps him motivated after all this time: seeing how excited camp leaders get when new updates roll out. Here’s a fun throwback: before we had a CMS team, engineers like Byron used to work directly with camps. It was such a unique and special part of Campminder’s early days. Those direct conversations with camp leaders gave our engineers an up-close look at what camps truly needed. The feedback they got helped shape the software into what it is today and propelled us forward. #TeamCampminder #EngineerSpotlight #TechEngineer #CampCommunity #Campminder

Summer camp parent referrals are great marketing tools and are more easily acquired by building a supportive community at camp. When parents feel informed and inspired to share their positive experiences, they become natural advocates for your programs. When you guide parents on effectively communicating the benefits of camp, you can attract new families, strengthen your camp community, and ensure continued success. Here’s how camp leaders turn parents into champions of their programs. Read our latest blog post on tips on some strategies for growth! https://lnkd.in/g9bgNndn #Campminder #CampminderSoftware #CampSoftware #CampTools #EducationSoftware #CampManagementTool

Have you ever heard of “Outdoor Benefits” at a job? I haven’t, and I never really expected it…So, while checking my emails this week, I was intrigued by a recent newsletter from Outside Magazine that highlights the U.S.'s top employers in a way I haven’t seen before. Unlike the typical rankings, this one focused on companies that bring the great outdoors to their employees' lives. Here are 8 of them that caught my attention: - Wilderness Travel (Berkeley, California): Wilderness Travel trip (with a +one), a $4,000 annual travel stipend, 10 Fridays off annually, and fun team outings like kayaking, escape rooms, an Alcatraz tour, or curling. - Campminder (Boulder, Colorado): On-site retreats with yoga, cooking classes, escape rooms, and hikes with goats!   - Alianza, Inc. (Grove, Utah): a $500 annual fitness reimbursement, corporate passes for skiing, rock climbing, and golf, a fleet of e-bikes for employee use, a fully stocked kitchen with vegan and paleo options, and 100% employer-paid healthcare premiums.   -  Landmark Consultants Inc. (Steamboat Springs, CO) — In addition to fully covering health insurance costs for employees & their dependents, they offer a physical health benefit equivalent to a full Ikon ski pass., an annual summer camping trip, and a company ski day.   - Global Glimpse (Oakland, California): An annual international team retreat, bi-weekly half-day “Wellness Fridays”, a “Workiversary” Program that includes flight vouchers, swag, and sabbaticals, plus a week off for winter holiday and another one for the summer!   - BSW Wealth Partners, a Public Benefit Corporation (in Boulder, CO): early Fridays for adventures, ski trips, and a dinner stipend with a babysitter for work anniversaries.   - Ergodyne (St. Paul, Minnesota): Half-day Fridays in the summer, team 5K runs, a fully equipped gym with a Peloton machine, and weekly workout classes.   - Eagle County Paramedic Services (Edwards, Colorado): a $1,200 annual stipend for ski passes or other recreational pursuits, a housing assistance program with 10% annual loan forgiveness, and employee gifts like Osprey backpacks and Melanzana hoodies.   I believe that this isn’t about a flashy benefits package...I think these companies genuinely want empowering their employees to live fulfilling lives beyond work. And I think that’s the kind of future-forward thinking we need to see more of! #EmployerBrand #WorkLifeBalance #BestPlacesToWork #outdoors #benefits
