Father-Son Camps

Our Father-Son Camps are designed to strengthen the bond between dads and their sons through adventure and meaningful experiences.

This is a special time away from the everyday rush, where fathers and sons can engage in team-building activities, learn outdoor skills, and have deep, meaningful conversations. This camp aims to foster trust, improve communication, and create lasting memories.

Rite of Passage Camps

Our Rite of Passage Camps are life-affirming experiences designed to help young people transition smoothly into adulthood. These one-of-a-kind camps focus on self-discovery, resilience, and leadership through challenging yet supportive activities.

Your kids will engage in team-building exercises, outdoor adventures, and reflective practices that help them understand their strengths, values, and goals.

These camps also involve you as their parent in certain activities – like milestone ceremonies and events – ensuring that your family can support each other through these critical life transitions.

Parents Retreats

Our Parents Retreats focus on helping you support your child’s social and emotional learning (SEL) needs.

These retreats are designed for parents alone, providing workshops, reflective sessions, and practical activities that teach you how to better communicate, manage stress, and work together to build resilience in your children.

This is also a chance to connect with other parents, share experiences, and gain new insights in a peaceful, supportive setting.

He said that his facilitator was encouraging and inspiring."

"To say she loved it would be an understatement. She loved every bit of it and importantly, she made new ... friends and became closer to old friends. She also said that she thought this camp has “made her a better person” and as a parent, I can not ask more than that - so hats off to you and the organizers of the camp and in particular to your facilitators, who she can not speak highly enough about."
