Association of Nature Center Administrators (ANCA) Outdoor School Summit
The ANCA Outdoor School Summit brings together directors and management staff from overnight outdoor schools, residential environmental learning centers, and nature-based camps across North America. These organizations share the unique opportunities and challenges of operating multi-day residential programs.
By connecting professionals who share responsibilities such as providing lodging and food for participants, the Summit creates a collaborative environment for solving common challenges and building lasting professional relationships.
This Summit is appropriate for any organization that offers overnight, multi-day programs that are based in environmental education, and we welcome all professionals in leadership or management positions at these organizations.
Join us for the 2027 Outdoor School Summit, January 15–19 at Camp McDowell in Nauvoo, Alabama. Registration will open in early September.
