By Jim Cain
Throughout the season, camp staff members progress through various levels of group development. These stages are both necessary and normal:
Forming Storming Norming Performing Transforming
You can help your staff navigate each stage by exploring the following activities with them, using the tools and suggestions provided.

Forming
The Forming Stage is the polite, get-acquainted, ice-breaking phase of group development. This process begins the moment new staff members assemble. Members are just trying to identify who’s who, and where they fit in. This stage includes forming an atmosphere of safety, acceptance and avoidance of controversy, and is filled with guidance from the camp director. Get-acquainted and community-building activities are used in this first stage.
