The Enrollment Cliff, with Jake Sorenson, Eric Wittenberg, and Stefanie Gillman
Join Travis Allison, Jake Sorenson, Eric Wittenberg, and Stefanie Gillman as they discuss the massive demographic shifts threatening the summer camp industry. The conversation centers on the “enrollment cliff”, a sharp decline in birth rates that is already impacting higher education and is set to hit the camp industry’s median age group by 2028. They explore why camps must move beyond their historically white, middle-class roots and start engaging diverse communities, alumni networks, and even older populations to ensure survival.
