Where we're at. We launched May 11, 2026, after most families had already sorted summer. On September 20 we launched the Day-Off Compass, one page with camps for every PD Day and school break for CBE and CCSD families. It quickly became our most visited camp page, and about 1 in 7 of its visitors clicked through to a camp's website. Every season, we promote it with a marketing plan that includes social media, our Camp Guides, and strategic paid ads, so parents keep finding it. Little Compass is made by a Calgary mom with a background in marketing and communications.
