Start Making Plans for a UU Summer!
Sunday, March 28, 12:15p
Janet Noble will host this informational meeting to offer first-hand, up-to-date information on three UUA-affiliated vacation sites in NewEngland: Ferry Beach in Maine, Star Island off the coast of New Hampshire, and Rowe Camp in western Massachusetts. These camps each have their distinct differences, but all offer individuals, families, children, teens, singles, men, woman, and gay people a variety of experiences. Many First Unitarians have spent time at these sites, and several will offer personal experiences and an overview of each of the sites.

Registration for the UUA camps usually begins in early spring, and spaces fill up fast – so now is the time to begin planning.

This session will also explore the possibility of establishing a Ferry Beach Weekend for First Unitarian in the spring or fall. Many churches have been having annual Ferry Beach weekends for years.
