There are three important crew leader meetings prior to our trip.
New Adult Volunteer Meeting – This meeting is for first time adults who are joining the trip. The topics covered will include expectations of our adults, how we accomplish JLASPs goals, ideas on how to get the most our of the youth and some little tips that we have found make all the difference. There will be a review of the Week at ASP, but this time from the adult crew leader perspective.
Young Adult Meeting – This is a meeting just for our Young Adult crew leaders. A YA is someone who graduated high school at least one year ago but is not yet 25 years old. Most of our young adults have participated with JLASP in the past. We will discuss the expectations and responsibilities of our YAs as well as some of the differences between this role and that of a youth or adult. There will be discussions of potential scenarios and a forum on how to be a good role model.
All Leader PreTrip Meeting – This will be the last time the center leadership teams will be together before the ASP week. This meeting is for all adult and young adult crew leaders. We will discuss finances, travel and vehicle logistics, accommodations, and any new policy or procedures. The group will then break out into centers where the center leaders can discuss and review any specifics for their group.
