Our Event Theme: "From the stump, a Shoot: What’s Next for Camping?"
Each December, Advent brings a time for wilderness, and a time of hopeful preparation for Christmas... tinged with a little fear of the unexpected. Each December as another camp year ends, we camp and retreat leaders navigate changes and challenges, a wilderness of sorts, and we adapt with hope for the year ahead… tinged with a little fear of the unexpected.
We've all recently encountered changes and challenges at our camps and centers. As non-profits, congregations and mainline denominations struggle, what’s next for camping? How can we be a source for growth and new energy? What will emerge from Advent? (From the stump, a Shoot?) What will emerge from this “wilderness” of disorientation?
Questions or ideas?
