New Camp on Salt Spring Island

The Parish of Salt Spring has graciously agreed to host a Gulf Islands Day Camp on July 23rd through 27th.  The Gulf Islands Camp was moved from the original location on Pender due to complications arising from hosting on the smaller island.  Many thanks to Rev. Stetson, lay leaders, and volunteers from Salt Spring Island for your support and willingness to host what is sure to be an epic week.

Work Weekends Cancelled!

Camp Columbia work weekends which had been scheduled for March 9-11 and April 20-22 are cancelled following suspension of Camp Columbia.  Given health and safety concerns, the facilities cannot be used to host volunteers until future notice.  However, repair of the water chlorination system is underway.  The Bishop is appointing a Task Team for visioning the future of Camp Columbia.
