Danebod Family Camps is excited to announce a leadership summit and camp sampler that will take place on Saturday, May 13th at St. Peder’s church in south Minneapolis.
The leadership summit will begin at 1:30 pm and we especially encourage those interested in future leadership opportunities to attend. If you know someone who may not be on the Danebod email list (particularly younger campers whose contact info hasn’t been shared with DFC), please invite them to join in on the fun as we exchange ideas across the camps and generations!
The Danebod Family Camp Sampler will begin with a potluck at 5:30 and will include singing and dancing for all ages. We encourage current campers to spread the word to friends and family who may be interested in the Danebod experience!
