Thanks for a Successful 21st Annual Abundant Living Conference

Apr 5, 2024, 08:54 AM by SCOA

Whether you are 8 or 80, there is fun to be had and friends to be made at camp! In March, we had the best time hosting over 100 seniors to our Abundant Living Conference, co-hosted with Camp Allen. Thank you to our incredible doctors, clergy and workshop leaders along with support from the Episcopal Seniors Foundation and The Guild Shop that made this experience possible. Older adults have had the opportunity to attend this fun and informative event for more than 20 years. Thanks to the many contributors.
