Chalice Camp Creators Needed

For many years, TUUC offered Chalice Camp to elementary school-aged children a week each summer. It was a day camp experience and served as a great way for the children of the church to explore UU principles & values and to connect with each other.

We have not had Chalice Camp for a couple of years now and would love to bring it back. A recent article in the Winter 2018 UU World magazine called a week of Chalice Camp “better than Sunday school.” While Sunday programming occurs for about an hour a week, Chalice Camp brings children together for a larger block of time and allows us to really dive in to the programming. We are also interested in exploring the option of extending the camp beyond just elementary school-aged kids, and offering a program for middle school, and, perhaps, even high school youth.

A committee is forming to talk about ideas for Chalice Camp 2019. Our first meeting will be on Wednesday, January 16 at 7:00 p.m. in the Middle School room. If you are interested in participating in the conversation, please join us. If you are unable to make this meeting, let Nancy Slocum, Director of Religious Exploration know at Dir.RE@TahomaUU.com, so you can be included in further communication.
