Daily Options - Mondays and Wednesdays at 12:30 pm: These will change weekly and are interactive, often silly hour long sessions. They are our best attempt at bringing camp to life through the computer. Every option will be a little different but will be designed to engage and facilitate community.

Closing Ceremony - Fridays at 5 PM: At camp we gather at the end of each week to hear some words from Laura, share our favorite moments, and sing our camp song. Join us each Friday at 5 pm to reflect, connect, and get those "camp feels.” 

Step 3: After you sign up for the sessions you’re interested in, I will send you all the Zoom information you need to log on.
