This week is a time of shared fun, kindness, and supportive new friendships among all ages. Each day we build stick houses on the Pocumtuck Ridge, play games, sing and hear stories as well as learn how to talk things out. Workshops choices include art, dance, hikes, writing, and story-building. From the start we make sure everyone feels included so there is a solid feeling of belonging and social safety.

Sliding Scale Honor System
Journey Camp fees offer a sliding scale. The bottom of the scale is where our subsidized fees begin. In other words, every family paying at the bottom of the scale is receiving a self-chosen scholarship because the amount doesn’t cover our expenses in running the session.
Questions?
We give an experience of a supportive and empowering community.
Journey Camp has intangible qualities — there’s a welcoming spirit, a way that the campers look out for each other. There’s the listening abilities of the staff, their nurturing, and the individualized planning that takes in the needs of each camper. Our leadership program allows for a ratio of one staff for every two campers.
Journey Camp is a peacebuilding camp. We provide a vision of how to see yourself as part of generations of people who make contributions to the world.
