Schedule
The ExCo team has been working hard to rethink what a virtual camp could look like, and how we can use technology to our advantage. Friday night will mostly be about getting to know each other more, so that we can go ahead and dive deeper on Saturday and Sunday. To minimize Zoom fatigue, we’ve embedded longer breaks around mealtimes.
For the best experience for you and your fellow campers (and for our planning purposes), we ask that all campers participate fully in the scheduled program unless otherwise arranged with ExCo.
All times listed are in Pacific Time (PT).

Friday
7:30pm WELCOME & Introductions

8:00pm Meet your small group
Get to know your small group in your own video call set up by your Small Group Leader; check your email for the link.
8:30pm Icebreakers
We’ll do a quick large group icebreaker, and then split up into smaller Zoom breakout rooms for an interactive bingo game (choose any card: card #1, card #2, card #3) so you have a chance to get to know more campers!
9:30pm End
We’ll end the night at 9:30pm, so you have plenty of time to rest up for the next day of camp.

7:30pm Adoration
As Catholics, we believe the Eucharist is Jesus truly present! A consecrated host is placed in a monstrance and presented to us for adoration and worship. During Eucharistic Adoration, we “watch and wait”, opening ourselves to His Graces which flow from the Eucharist.
Adoration will be livestreamed over Zoom. We’ll have praise & worship songs playing (recorded by campers!), but you can mute your own audio if you prefer to pray in silence. Light your candle, and follow along to the music lyrics here.
8:30pm Game night (optional)
It’s a camp tradition to play games at night with ramen! We’ll have several “game room” video calls open with games led by your fellow campers. You can play for as long or short as you want. Hungry for a late night snack? Now’s a good time to eat the instant ramen from your welcome package!
Sunday
Reminder: wear your camp t-shirt for the group photo before the 4:15pm break!
