5.0 out of 5 stars A Real Boon For Us, August 18, 2005

This review is from: Program Madness! The Essential Revenue Generating ToolBook for AfterSchool, Summer & Year Round Children's Programs (Spiral-bound)

We own both of Ms. Stanco's books....Marketing and Programming Madness.

There are a lot of great examples of real world marketing and programming Summer Programs...just plug in and use if you need.

Much of what makes Marketing Madness useful, is re-addressed in Programming Madness. While Marketing Madness tells you how to appeal to your audience, Programming helps you improve (or indeed, begin) a Summer Camp or Afterschool Extra-curricular program.

Text is big, and while it's not a long book, it's packed solid with good information. It's also an easy read - it can take you and hour if you skim thru it, or days if you try to gather all the wondeful details within.

This is a real find for anyone that has a Summer Camp or related situation. It works for us - the pages are shopworn now.

I have both of Ms. Stanco's books and find them both to be an invaluable resource and guide. I would highly recommend both books. The format of these books are terrific and full of great information..a must have for any educator/administrator who is looking to start an after school, summer or year round program for children or enhance their existing programs.

Program Madness makes creating your own programs easy. There are examples that can be put to use immediately as is or they can just be a springboard for your creative spark.

It is a quick and easy read that you will find yourself returning to often.
