Greetings from Loch Leven!
There are so many amazing things happening at Loch Leven in preparation for our 2020 summer season. Our theme this year is going to be “Around the World” in celebration of the 2020 Olympics and the things that bring us together. Our entire program is geared towards immersive experiences, sportsmanship, and empowering our campers to change the world! We are incredibly excited to be launching some new programs during this summer camp. You won’t want to miss it! Registration is currently open!
In the spirit of preparing for summer camp, we at Loch Leven are working tirelessly to remove obstacles and address parent concerns head on. We have a fundraiser entitled “Hike for Camp” on March 28, 2020. We will be leading a hike to our waterfall (alternative hikes will be available), followed by a BBQ and activities in the afternoon. Event tickets cost $20 for adults, and $5 for children. All proceeds will be going directly to sending kids to camp. Please visit lochleven.org for more information, and to register for the event.
We have also been working on how to respond to the Covid-19 outbreak. We want to ensure that all campers have a safe and fulfilling week at summer camp, and to make that is the case, we are updating our health and wellness policies and procedures. Our prevention methods will include improved health screens, and having all Loch Leven staff trained on proper illness prevention protocol.
Pastors, our 2020 retreat calendar is filling up fast, so be sure to contact our office to plan your retreat. Our current rebate for DOC churches is $1600 for the weekend in Campbell Lodge. Our 2021 calendar is currently open for booking. If you book this year for 2021, you will guarantee our current rate for next year.
Finally, our newest program is out and ready! Camp in a Box allows us to bring Loch Leven to your church to engage with participants of all ages, and most group sizes. We believe that camp has so much to offer everybody, and we don’t want to keep it to ourselves on the mountain. Please contact our office if you have any questions!
Best,
Nicholas Selway
Camp Manager
