You're invited to help get Miniwanca and Merrowvista ready for the program season! We welcome current and former camp families, seasonal staff, adult program alumni, and those new to camp.<\/p>\n

This is a family-oriented weekend, and age-appropriate projects and activities will be available. Attendees younger than 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.<\/p>\n

This weekend is free and includes housing and food for the weekend, including dinner on Friday evening, three meals on Saturday, and breakfast on Sunday. We ask that you consider making a donation<\/a> to help cover the costs of this weekend.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

What To Expect<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

We meet at Merrowvista\/Miniwanca on Friday evening and share a meal while we connect with old friends and make new ones.<\/p>\n

Saturday will focus on service to the site. We will clean, rake, dig, paint, repair, and replace to help prepare this beautiful place for the hundreds of participants who will visit in 2025.<\/p>\n

The rest of the weekend will be filled with games, socializing, free time, Community Fire, and a reflection on service.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
