SUMMARY:Foster & Foster Adopted Youth Retreat
DESCRIPTION:An Opportunity for Foster & Foster Adopted Youth to Make New Connections & Build Friendships\nFriday\, April 19-Sunday\, April 21\, 2024 | Camp Knutson\, Crosslake\, Minnesota\nLutheran Social Service (LSS) is excited to offer a special opportunity for foster and foster adopted youth (ages 13-17) to spend a weekend among peers who have shared life experiences at Camp Knutson (Camp K) in Crosslake\, Minnesota. In addition to helping foster and foster adopted youth build new connections and make new friends\, this retreat will offer an opportunity for siblings who are not currently residing in the same placement to spend quality time together and maintain their familial bond. Registration priority will be given to siblings who do not reside in the same household. Whether attending with a sibling or not\, every youth will gain valuable life skills that can be used long after the retreat has concluded. \nRetreat Location: Camp K is located at 11148 Manhattan Point Blvd\, Crosslake\, Minnesota 56422. \nSchedule & Transportation: This retreat will take place from Friday\, April 19\, 2024\, at 6 p.m. to Sunday\, April 21\, 2024\, at 12:30 p.m. Optional transportation will be provided for those interested. Buses will depart from our St. Paul office located at 1605 Eustis Street\, Saint Paul\, MN at 3:00 p.m. Friday\, April 19\, and will return on Sunday\, April 21\, at approximately 3:30 p.m. Youth can also be dropped off and picked up directly from Camp K. \nCost to attend: Free! We are pleased to offer this retreat free of cost thanks to funding through the Minnesota Department of Human Services Permanency Support Services contract. \nAbout Camp K:\nCamp K is a welcoming\, inclusive camp where guests can build friendships\, recognize their strengths\, gain self-confidence\, and identify skills to help them realize their goals. \nWhat Campers Can Expect: \n\nCamp K is a fully accessible camp.\nYouth will be staying in cabins with staff.\nThere will be non-gendered sleeping space options available.\nYouth will be supervised by adoption professionals\, trained volunteer chaperones\, and Camp K staff.\nThis retreat will be unplugged!
