While we cannot host our Girls Camp Reunion at Miniwanca this summer, we hope you will join us for a free Virtual Labor Day Girls Camp Reunion September 3-6 for a long weekend to visit with old friends, rediscover favorite memories, and connect with the values of best self and balanced living. All are welcome, especially those who participated or worked at YG, OG, or Girls Camp.
There is no obligation to attend the whole program– simply choose from events on the schedule. We look forward to seeing you in one of our virtual events!
