From Campfire Chats to Family Tables—How One Book is Creating Waves of Wisdom
As summer camps kick off across the country, we’re thrilled to share a transformative way to prepare young minds and hearts for the journey ahead. At D1 Productions, it all begins with BREAK THAT GRIP...LESSONS FROM THE OCEAN OF LIFE—a powerful guide that helps youth recognize life’s emotional rip currents and teaches them how to ride those waves with strength and confidence.
But the impact doesn’t stop there…
We’ve launched an exciting Ripple Effect of Learning:
Youth Leaders First – Teens and young adults go through our leadership training course, “Understanding the Rip Currents of Life.” They master mental resilience strategies like S.O.A.R. (Stop, Observe, Adjust, Reframe) and R.I.S.E. (Respond, Inhale, Stay warm, Exhale).
Then They Teach – These leaders present two fun and memorable messages, Break That Grip and CPR Starts with the Heart, to campers using our interactive Canva slide decks—tailored for younger minds.
And Campers Take It Home – Each camper receives our two brand-new activity books:
Ocean Explorer: Teaching ocean safety and emotional resilience through the SOAR Strategy.
CPR Responder: Empowering kids with the RISE Strategy and essential lifesaving skills.
These books are more than camp souvenirs—they’re conversation starters, designed for campers to teach their families what they’ve learned. This is how confidence spreads. This is how leaders grow.
🎯 Camp Organizers: Want to empower your campers with messages that last far beyond the summer? Partner with us to bring this ripple effect to your program.
👨👩👧👦 Parents: Want your child to come home from camp stronger, more self-aware, and ready to lead with heart? Make sure they bring home these activity books—and be part of the conversation.
Together, we’re not just making waves—we’re raising leaders.
