Virtual Peace Camp 2020
Theme: My Two Hands Hold The Earth


Join us for 4 weeks of Virtual Programming from June 22- July 16.

What does virtual peace camp look like? MJ Park will be leading peace circles and classes! Each Monday we will kick off the week with an Opening Circle with all peace campers. On Thursday afternoons we will close out the week with our Closing Circle with all campers. This gives the campers an opportunity to interact and tell stories about what they have learned or experienced during the week. 

Twice a week your child will meet with their peace camp team (divided by age and grade). 
Classes will provide children (ages 4-14) with the opportunity to explore cooperation and conflict resolution in safe and supportive environments. Peace camp has always been about creating inclusive environments where campers, counselors and staff can experience, learn, and practice peace in ways our culture may not facilitate. 

This year's theme represents our larger commitment to doing our little part to help heal and renew the face of the earth. This summer, our campers will discover how being an earthkeeper is just one way that peace can begin with them. Not only will they explore methods of maintaining their own personal wellbeing but also learn ways that they can be peace leaders in their world through their actions towards others and our earth.
​​
Peace Camp is a highly interactive experience, where campers are taught the skills needed to deal with their problems in a peaceful manner and are encouraged to create solutions to the problems they see in the world. Join us this summer as we explore care for ourselves, each other, and our earth!

Peace Camp Poetry

Untitled
A poem by Jonathan Harness
"I can see the sun
Through the clouds I've broken
Evaporating the walls of my cage
I set forth
Taking the path least traveled
Because I blaze it as I go
Putting prints behind me
Party grows larger
Because I hold my hands out
Pull people from the Rapids
Share the herbs I've picked up along my way
Remedy everything
With an open hand and an explorer's machete."
Peace Transformer
By Leila Park, age 12
"We are peace transformers
not robots, not cars
even though that would be cool
but we still transform, we still change
we change hate to love
we change racism into equality
we change war to peace
even though we are not robots or cars

we are peace transform."

by Noelle, 5th grade

We need peace. You can find it in yourself. If you look at all of the things that are happening in the world, wouldn't you want to help? If you don't the world will get worse. For all of us. So please all I am asking is to be kind, care for people, and love one another. Find it deep down in yourself and create peace. Then the world will be a better place, for all of us.

What Is Peace? 
A poem by Piper Powell
"What is peace?
Peace is a single breath that becomes stronger when we work together.
Peace is the choice that everyone has to make. Are you going to choose violence... or peace?
Peace is a voice that has been forgoten, but is rembered thanks to peacemakers all around us.
Peace is the fire that brings warmth back to us after a deadly war full of regrets.
Peace are new eyes you can look through like I did and so many others. Peace is all those things and more."
