Our theme this year : Love: Can we love our neighbors? our enemies? ourselves? Were the Beatles right when they sang, "All you need is love?"
 We will explore our theme through role play, drama, art, music, shared experiences, and stories of people from Bible times and in the world today who have brought happiness to others.

We will seek to live together for one week in a fun-filled, progressive, non-competitive environment, using creative and performing arts to express our hopes and dreams for a world filled with God's inclusive love.

Memorable end-of-the-week BBQ family dinner with talent show rounds out the week. Great fun to be had by all.



What to expect ... ?an Under the redwoods at St. John's find a place of peace and acceptance valuing the abilities and interests of each camper. Experience the grace of celebrating the lives of heroes who work for peace, justice, and happiness in all the world.
