SFCAC wants to encourage participation and the pricing this year includes a church subsidy for all! Therefore, we have simplified the pricing to just one affordable level. The prices for initial enrollment are significantly less than 2 years ago to encourage our members to participate in this year’s camp. There will not be separate pricing for part time Friday arrivals.
However, please do tell us if you cannot make the camp until Friday. This will help on the resource planning for meals and logistics at the camp level so that we can minimize waste in these areas.
SFCAC Governing Board has take a step of faith that post-camp free will offering will bridge the financial gap due to the subsidy.
-
SFCAC will have Big Rock and the Yurts at Pineknot available. Yurts will be allocated by gender or if
you have a large extended family interested in cabin level.
SFCAC will not be the only group at Alliance Redwood on these dates and we have been informed the camp will be full.
