Schedule

Friday  (6:00 - 7:30 p.m. Arrival and Registration)
We will spend most of the time getting to know each other, playing games, and getting ready for the day of service.


Saturday
Focus will be on service to the site. We will clean, rake, dig, repair, and/or replace the remnants of winter in preparation of the coming program season. There will be free time in the afternoon, with options of Polar Bearing in Lake Michigan, shopping in the camp store, and playing games. Our day will conclude with a delicious meal, a bonfire with s'mores, and some exciting evening activities to celebrate all that we have accomplished.


Sunday  (12:00 noon Departure)
This will be a day of personal time on and around the site. We will have a brief reflection service, and an optional high ropes experience for those wishing to stay in the afternoon to challenge themselves and try something new!
