Thanks for joining us at CACCLC 2019! This year, we had 87 campers and 3 religious (priests and seminarians); 28% of our campers were attending CACCLC for the first time.
For those who missed it or those who want to relive the memories, here are a few highlights in pictures:
Morning stretches!
Mass with Fr. Timothy
This year, we had the first ever CACCLC Networking event, where campers could connect to local young adult groups and bible studies, and connect based on other interests like volunteering and dragon boat. It was a great success, with many campers meeting new friends and group members!
Fr. Timothy gave insightful talks on our 2019 theme “Living Hope”: "Hope Includes Your Past", “Hope Includes Your Present”, and “Hope Includes Your Future”.
Our Large Group Activity this year was a relay race including Steal The Bacon, Rubber Duck Lasso, Know Your ExCo, Bible Trivia Poster, and a Pillow Sack Relay. Winning teams were awarded extra water balloons and water guns for an epic water balloon fight!
During the following free time, campers played basketball and spikeball, took a hike to check out the trail, swam in the pool, and took a nap to recharge.
Campers enjoyed many delicious meals, thanks to the kitchen staff!
For our workshops this year, we had a Social Justice workshop by Lily Sin, and a Mental Health workshop by Jessica Chow. Lily challenged campers to do an “Act of Hope” after camp, and Jessica taught us about the scientific side of anxiety and depression, and how to support our friends struggling with mental health.
Fr. Timothy answered campers’ anonymous questions during “Office Hours with Fr. Tim”.
At night, campers played board games, sang and jammed to music, and wrote affirmation notes to each other.
Fr. Timothy brought water from Lourdes (a pilgrimage site in France known for Marian apparitions and miraculous healings) in spray bottles and said a healing prayer for all the campers. What a blessed way to end camp!

As the 2019 ExCo team, we want to thank all of YOU campers for coming to camp this year. We hope that you all had a fruitful experience and hope to see you next year — save the date for Labor Day 2020 (Sep 4–7)!
