Got kids? Know a young person age 8 – 17 who would enjoy four days of friendship, fun and spirit on the beach? This summer’s Asilomar event (June 28 – July 1) will feature two tracks – one for kids 8 – 12 and one for youth 13 – 17 -  with experienced counselors steeped in the Cayce material and lifestyle, tide pool exploration, crafts, skits, music, Cayce games, workshops,  and fun.

Last year, every young person at camp made enthusiastic resolutions to come back this summer. Help bring up our next generation to share the faith and insights for life
we’ve found in the A.R.E. experience.

Exploring tidepools, beach games, evening bonfires, Cayce scavenger hunt and an inter-generational folk dance and skit night have come to mean ARE summer camp at Asilomar for over 50 years. This year we will have two groups under the supervision and guidance of experienced counselors. Campers will be able to share some camp activities with their parents or attend one or two workshops in the adult program.

Ages 7 through 12 will be housed with their parents and have the option of eating meals with parents or other campers. Parents will also be able to sign up for a 2hr block of time sharing in their child’s activities.

Ages 13-18 will have the option of being housed with their parents or rooming with another teen (to be arranged with Asilomar registration). They will also have special group time with our speakers as well as enjoy a host of other workshops that teach them how to access their inner guidance to face the challenges that we each deal with in the 21st century. Some of those workshops may include meditation, interpreting your dreams and mapping your ideals.

All campers will enjoy free time under the supervision of their parents every day from 3:15 to 6:00pm.

Check back for updates and more information.

We had Mary Roach teach us about intuition and psychometry

Pat Belisle talked to us about dream analysis

Alicia Retes took us down to the beach for a mediation on nature and taught us about the didgeridoo

Joe Culpepper gave us a magic show and even showed us how to perform a few tricks of our own.

Jaimal Yogis, a former camper, came back and read from his from his newly published book, Saltwater Buddha

Karyn Kleinmann taught a music workshop and we learned how to recreat the sounds of a rain forest using Brazilian bird whistles, drums, rain sticks, wind-makers and various other folk instruments.

As always we had the Cayce Games scavenger hunt, a particularly good showing for Skit Night and we all danced the Virginia Reel and Centipede. We’re already getting started planning for our November weekend! Hope to see you there.

Tomorrow is the first day of Asilomar Summer Camp 2009. We’ll be posting pictures and stories from camp and are looking forward to seeing everyone soon.

In the meantime, go play a game of Vampire with some friends.
