Find a leader
Staff a trip in a few clicks
The assign queue lists every trip that still needs leaders. Open one and BigBoard shows who's free for those dates, and names the reason everyone else isn't.
Scheduling for outdoor and expedition programs
The scheduling board your program actually runs on.
Trips, leaders, time off and certifications on one live board. BigBoard catches double-bookings before trips leave and keeps every leader's phone up to date, all season long.
Try it: three trips still need leaders
- Drag a trip onto a leader, or pick a trip to see who's free
- Double-book someone on purpose to see the warning
- Reset any time. Nothing here is saved
This is BigBoard's real schedule board and conflict checks, running in your browser on a made-up season.
“We are entering our first summer using the Endeavor Big Board interface. It has been a major upgrade from the complicated and labor-intensive spreadsheet we used previously!”
See it work
Built for the office and the field
Three moments from a season, from the office desk to a leader's phone. Each one plays on its own, or pick a step to jump around.
Leader's phone
Every leader's season, in their pocket
Leaders sign in on their phone to see their own trips, dates and co-leaders, and the full board when they want it. When a trip moves, their phone tells them, so nobody has to call base.
Certifications
Certifications without the paper chase
Leaders take a photo of each card on their phone. The office checks it beside the file, confirms the expiration date and approves it, and everyone can see who's cleared to lead.
Features
Everything the whiteboard did, and what it couldn't
One live board
Every trip, event, leader and day off for the season on one board, by leader or by trip type.
Conflicts caught early
Double-bookings, time off and trip-gender mismatches are flagged the moment they happen, not at the trailhead.
The right leader for each trip
See who's free and qualified for a trip's dates before you assign, and why everyone else isn't.
Certifications tracked
Leaders upload their cards, the office approves them, and expirations are watched for you.
On every leader's phone
Leaders see their own trips, co-leaders and the full board from any phone browser. Their own schedule stays readable offline.
Changes reach the field
Leaders are notified when they're added to a trip or one of theirs moves, so nobody has to call base to find out.
Drivers and vehicles
Plan shuttles and van assignments alongside the trips they serve.
Bring your spreadsheet
Import staff and trips from the sheets you already keep, with a dry run before anything is saved.
Reports for the office
Trip counts, camper days and leader staffing for the season, and every certification gap on one page.
In the press · Letters from Camp, Spring 2025
From a magnetic board to BigBoard
For about thirty years, YMCA Camp Widjiwagan planned its summers on a wall-sized magnetic board of staff, trips and drivers, with a daily photo as its only backup. YMCA of the North's magazine tells how a former camper and counselor replaced it with BigBoard in 2022, and how it now tracks time off, qualifications and double-bookings across hundreds of trips.
