Camp Stoney to Remain Open During Transition of Boards this Fall

The Bishop and Diocesan staff have decided to keep Camp Stoney open this fall as the current board transitions out and as a new board is put into place. The staff at camp, Beryl Zimmerman and Carlos Vigil, will be welcoming visiting groups. The diocesan staff will be helping with oversight as the current board is disbanded as of Sept. 1st. The new board is being formed and will be in place shortly after Convention in October. We have many retreats already scheduled, but there is still plenty of room for you and your group. Come and join us this Fall and Winter! You can contact the camp office at (505) 983-5610. We are also on Facebook.
