Summary of the "Love Beyond" Happy Time Summer Camp

1. Activity Process

At the end of 20XX, the China Youth Development Foundation's "Love Beyond" project was launched. Xiong proposed to participate in the election in the form of a quality-development summer camp, and then he roped me in to start a small summer camp project.

On March 1st, the Happy Time Summer Camp project was approved. On the 28th, we participated in the project backbone training conducted by the Youth Development Foundation in Changsha and made more detailed adjustments to the plan.

On April 1st, Siping and I went to Huize Xingfu Primary School to conduct research. After that, we started to form a team, collect game information, build a publicity platform, and officially started recruiting volunteers from the outside world on April 14th. , organized volunteers to conduct 4 targeted discussions.

On May 12, the team began to design courses according to the division of labor, and contacted Mr. Lei Jian, director of the Chengdu New Space Youth Development Center, for guidance. At the end of May, the design of each course of the project was basically completed, the overall project action book was also compiled, and the materials were distributed to volunteers for study.

At the end of June, we will purchase medicines, team uniforms and other materials, borrow sleeping bags and moisture-proof pads, design and book round-trip routes, purchase insurance, etc. All preparation work was completed in the last few days.

The final opening date is July 10th. The team members participating in the camp were finally determined to be 12 people: Zhang Qi, Jiang Lin, Cao Junjun, Zhang Lei, Shi Yue, Tian Li, Yan Li, Zhang Yufang, Guan Yayuan, Yang Xue, Xiao Shuli, Liu Cunyi, with Xiong Lan providing remote guidance in Beijing.

On the morning of the 7th, the camp members boarded the train from Chengdu to Zhaotong, marking the official entry into the implementation phase of the summer camp.

On the evening of the 7th, the train arrived at Zhaotong and met up with Qiao Jia, Ruo, Xing and others who had come to pick him up from Yiliang at 6 o'clock in the morning. The transfer to Zhaotong is a worrying part. A slight delay will seriously affect the entire summer camp. Yiliang Happy Family is far away from Zhaotong, and the journey is very troublesome, but in the end our Happy Family helped us get everything done.

On the 8th, all 12 camp members arrived at No. 1 Primary School successfully and started various preparations.

On the 9th, the whole team conducted a pre-drill and negotiated with the school about the opening ceremony. In the afternoon, teachers from the Youth Development Foundation arrived at the school with reporter Ru from Yunnan Information News.

More than 10 guests from the Yunnan Youth Foundation, Huize Youth League County Committee, County Education Bureau, Leye Town Government and the Town Central School were invited to attend the opening ceremony.

Within 7 days of the opening of the camp, we successfully presented the designed curriculum and had fruitful exchanges with school teachers. The mental outlook of the campers has been initially changed, and the team members Gained experience and gained a preliminary understanding of the basic situation of school teachers and students, laying the foundation for sustainable summer camp development in the future.

From the time the summer camp team members arrived in Huize County to the collective return trip, various departments of the Huize Youth League Committee, Leye Central School and Tuanpo Primary School gave the summer camp team the greatest support, which greatly reduced the team’s travel time and various potential risks at the activity site to ensure the smooth development of the summer camp.

On the 18th, the six team members who transferred from Kunming went to the Yunnan Youth Foundation to visit the teachers who have always cared about and supported Happy Time and this summer camp.

We have now entered the summary period of Happy Time Summer Camp. Since the efficiency of online communication and discussion needs to be improved, and everyone is pressed for time, the summary period is expected to be very long, but I believe we will overcome the difficulties and prepare for the next Be fully prepared for the summer camp.

2. Campers summarize the advantages and disadvantages

1. Advantages:

2) Most of the preparations in the early stage were relatively sufficient, and a detailed project design document was developed. The entire preparation process was recorded in detail and fully documented for the future.

3) The process of carrying out summer camp activities has basically reached standardization: pre-drills, one-day work and rest system and logistics system, team member group responsibility system, summarizing the day's activities every night and preparing for the next day's actions; the round-trip itinerary is set in advance wait.

4) Volunteers agree with the concept of happy time, are responsible and enthusiastic, pay attention to each child (especially mental health), discover their strengths and weaknesses, and at the same time reflect on their own shortcomings in a timely manner and listen to everyone's opinions ; The team gets along well and cooperates very harmoniously, with almost no sense of isolation or strangeness; the different experiences of the team members are beneficial to internal communication and communication with the children; the volunteers’ own strengths are fully utilized;

5) Contacted a professional quality development organization as a guidance organization and put forward many practical ideas for the summer camp.

6) Successfully completed the entire project process and left a wealth of first-hand information, including video materials and documents.

2. Shortcomings and improvements

1) Due to manpower issues and network communication limitations in the preparation stage, the overall project preparation was insufficient and the goals were not clear enough. The activity plan is not detailed enough, mainly because it is not enforceable and targeted enough.

2) The publicity was not in place and sufficient fixed manpower was not found during the preparation stage.

3) The assessment of volunteers is a bit confusing, the assessment time and content are uncertain, and the assessment form is not very good (make a more effective assessment plan);

4) Volunteers Inadequate experience, lack of professionals during the activity (which should be considered when recruiting volunteers in the future), and some inability to respond to emergencies;

5), on-site stage: too little time for field exercises, low efficiency, resulting in The team members do not have enough knowledge and understanding of the game, which affects the effect of the game; insufficient material preparation and poor management (dedicated personnel to classify management); factors such as weather are not fully considered, and the alternative plans are not sufficient; the daily summary meeting is not implemented in writing, and there is a lack of communication Mechanism, the efficiency of meetings is low; the closing of the camp was a bit hasty and there was no timely summary;

6) The team discipline is not strong, the volunteers do not communicate enough with the children and teachers, and the volunteers rarely communicate with the teachers Problems with the children; the person in charge did not establish due authority, did not take the discipline seriously from the beginning, and failed to implement the discipline well;

7) The summer camp project has many themes and is slightly Looks messy and needs to be streamlined.

3. Future development plan:

1. A long-term organizational structure of the project team must be established urgently. Members and positions must be permanent and fixed, and sub-project leaders must be fixed. Responsible for all work, truly operating in the form of a project, and only after the organizational procedures are standardized, can the summer camp continue in a sustainable manner.

2. Try to combine summer camps with college charity groups to enhance reserve human resources. The plan is to be piloted at Southwest University of Finance and Economics because e-petal Xinxiang Charity Club of University of Finance and Economics has continued to participate in the activities of the Happy Time Summer Camp, which has a certain foundation. Basic joint requirement: Agree with the idea of ??happy times.

3. Form a team to participate in the Google Yinuan China Charity Competition in the name of Happy Time Summer Camp. If passed, there will be enough funding to carry out summer camps for multiple primary schools at the same time. The project has not been registered yet and is still in the publicity stage in colleges and universities. I will follow up at any time.

4. Continue to summarize the summer camp and discuss and improve the shortcomings found. At the same time, we discuss the feedback mechanism for conducting a small summer camp.
