Details

   Family Camp is where fun, connection, support, adventure, learning and transformation come together in a unique vacation experience. Join families and staff from around the world on a 26-acre farm with beach-front access on beautiful Vashon Island, WA, the emerald gem of the Puget Sound.

By offering each other our support and presence we'll dip into what it’s like to live in a world where the intention is to contribute to the quality of connection necessary to meet everyone’s needs.  We'll explore how it is to be compassionate with ourselves, our children/youth/teens and each other, while living in supportive community with other families. We carry the hope that you'll be able to extend your experience at camp into your daily lives by fostering the connections you have made.

We have the great fortune again this year of holding Family Camp at the Farmstad on Vashon Island. The Dolstad farm property holds 26 acres of fields, orchards, a stream and two forests.  There is beach access nearby to the shores of Puget Sound and plenty of room to frolic.

Cancellations and Refunds:

   We understand that life happens and that cancellations are possible! And, at the same time, on the organizing end, we're hiring staff, materials and food based on registration numbers. We hope the following cancellation policy makes Family Camp an affordable and sustainable experience for all!

For cancellations before May 1, we will refund whatever you've paid, minus a $75 administrative fee.

For cancellations between May 1 and July 1, we'll refund whatever you've paid, minus a $300 administrative fee, as we've incurred a lot of non-refundable costs by that time..

For cancellations after July 1, we will keep your tuition as a tax-deductible donation to camp, as most of our camp costs have been committed by then based on our registration numbers.
