Rites of Passage

Open to 8 to 10 year-olds attending Family Camp.

Rites of Passage, for 8 to 10 year-olds, marks the transition all children make at this age from being solely family centered to becoming an important member of the community as well. In this program children are first introduced to contemplative arts such as Kyudo (Zen archery) and calligraphy, as well as to the possibility of regular meditation practice. Perhaps for the first time in their lives, children experience belonging to a spiritual community of their own, separate from family members. They begin to explore who they uniquely are and what kind of adults they aspire to become.

This program is restricted to children attending Family Camp.

The $80 fee is in addition to the charge for attending Family Camp.
