Christ is Risen!

Dear Summer Camp Families,

As you may have heard by now, we made the extremely difficult but necessary decision to cancel our in-person camp this summer and offer an online “Virtual Camp” alternative.

We are disappointed to miss out on driving to camp and being with each other in person this summer, but we are excited for the challenge to create an engaging program that will still bring us together in a different and unique way. Perhaps a few years from now, we will all look back at this summer as a challenging, but unique and bonding experience that we are all thankful to have been a part of. You may even have a unique camp shirt or sweatshirt to remember it by!

We invite you to offer some feedback here in this survey as we continue to plan for our Virtual Camp program. We also invite the campers to attend a zoom Virtual Camp Brainstorming Session on Wednesday, May 6, 2020 at 6:00pm PST. Please check the email I sent with the link to join.

Please note that when conducting our Virtual Camp Program, we will most likely use the zoom platform and utilize the password feature for the safety of our participants. We may also include some live streaming or prerecorded material that would be posted to Facebook, YouTube, or our website.

If you have any further ides or concerns, please feel free to contact me directly at JDuterte@sanfran.goarch.org

In Christ,

Johanna Duterte Carter
