WHAT LEADS TO HUMAN FLOURISHING
The 21st century is full of conveniences and we are increasingly tempted to live for ourselves, but is this a life worth living for? This hub will confront ideals that degrade people and unpack Jesus’ answer that the good life is found in community.

Packing List:
All campers will need to bring bedding (pillow and sleeping bag), towel, and toiletries (soap). Also we suggest a water bottle, warm casual clothing, shoes to hike outdoors (there will be snow and ice!), Bible, pen, journal, extra cash for travel food. An offering will be taken (credit card option will be available).
Transportation:
We have hired a coach bus (with 48-seats) to drive us from the UBCO campus to Camp Squeah and return. We will be meeting at 4:00pm on Friday in G Lot (behind the Fine Arts building). Pack dinner or eat before hand. We will have a fuel stop, but not a dinner stop. The cost is FREE because we received a grant from the OPCS (Okanagan Pentecostal Camp Society).
On Sunday, we will leave the camp by 11:30am, and stop for a lunch break in Merritt at TripleO's / Dairy Queen. We should arrive back at UBCO around 3:00pm.
