Who facilitates the weekend?
Caregiver Camp is facilitated by the founder or a trusted co-facilitator, whether facilitator-hosted or host-your-own.
What is a facilitator-hosted weekend?
The facilitator selects and books the location, currently a home in the Dallas area, with out of town locations added throughout the year. You just show up, everything is planned and provided.
What is a host-your-own weekend?
Your group selects and books its own lodging (Airbnb, hotel suite, etc). The facilitator still handles meals, activities, and facilitation, just not the venue itself.
Is the facilitator there the entire weekend?
No. The facilitator arrives Friday evening to get things started, returns Saturday morning with breakfast and stays through the day, then returns Sunday morning with breakfast to close things out. They are not on site overnight, though overnight stays may be considered case by case for an additional fee.
What if I don’t want to do an entire weekend?
