  • 1.  Camp Thespis

    Posted 05-21-2023 15:10

    Hi everyone, 

    The Maryland Chapter wants to provide a leadership "camp" for our state thespian leaders next fall.  Does anyone else do this?  If yes, can you share any materials that you use to run a camp or leadership conference or something like that. 

    Thanks so much!

    Not to brag, but AZ established the first Thespian leadership camp/retreat way back in '89, when I was state/chapter director, and for partly the reason I was inducted into the Hall of Fame in '04.  However, now I'm "out of the loop," and so I suggest you contact Jenell Riordan, currant state/chapter director for the materials you're seeking.

    Our AZ Thespians camp/retreat runs over a period of four days (total time actually being about 3 and a half)  in July at a beautiful camp high up in the forests of central AZ to get out of the heat of metro Phoenix and vicinity.  Hope this helps.
