Camp is in full swing and we have pictures to prove it.  Check out the daily happenings at the Village by visiting our Summer Memories page.  So if you can't join us for camp this summer, at least you can experience the Village virtually.

  

  

We are rapidly approaching the end of our 2008 Summer camping season, much to the chagrin of our staff and campers.  Believe it or not, we have already received calls inquiring about dates for the summer of 2009.  So, by popular request we are pleased to announce the dates for next year's camping seasons (Winter Camp, Family Camp, Summer Camp, Sacred Arts Camps, etc).  Click here to view the 2009 Camp Dates!  

 

  

We have brought in an entirely new line of Antiochian Village clothing for the 2008 season.  Visit our Camp Bookstore page and our AV Gear page that features a sampling of our new products. Please note that we are adding new items daily so visit the website every couple of days for additional merchandise.  These items may be purchased in our Camp Bookstore or by calling our office at (724) 238-9565.  If your child is coming to camp this summer, they may bring money for purchasing items in the Camp Bookstore.  We will deposit their money in an account and will refund any unused funds at the end of the camping session. 

 

  

This summer is our 30th Anniversary Camping Season.  As part of our celebration we are looking for old photos from seasons gone by.  If you have any of those treasured moments on film, we would love to have an electronic copy.  We are planning to show a short slide show during Evening Program that captures the personalities and programs of the Village.  Feel free to spread the word to former staff and campers that we need there help as well.  You may send your photos to Rizkallah Rizk at riz11153@suffolk.edu. Thanks for your help and look for some of these golden moments of the past 30 years in our photo gallery.

  

  

Mark your calendars!  The weekend of July 4-6 is our annual Alumni Weekend.  It will begin with our alumni hosting our Fourth of July fireworks.  We will have our alumni actively engaged in the weekend activities of camp including Color Wars.  To register for the Alumni Weekend visit our forms page or for more information contact Fr Anthony (franthony@antiochianvillage.org).
