Camp Demographics for 2007
The MCA is asking all camps this upcoming season to maintain a counting of all campers per session by both gender and age. If you do not already keep track of this data, the MCA will be distributing a Camper Demographics Chart next week that can be utilized and submitted to the MCA at the conclusion of the season.
With the age, gender and amount of campers registered for camp, we can collectively utilize this information to better understand our target market and user groupings, as well as report on the total number of children registered at Camp throughout Manitoba during the summer of 2007.
