Hey Adventurers,

Pack your curiosity and mark your calendars—registration is open for experiential educators and therapists in the West Region!
*EARLY BIRD RATES END APRIL 3!

📅 When: May 1-3, 2026
📍 Where: Camp Emerson, Idyllwild CA 
Theme: Community, Narratives and Connection

Think of it as a chance to step out of your routine and into a space full of connection, activities, and shared inspiration. We’ll swap stories, try out experiential activities together, and fuel up on community energy.

We will be hosting a midway camp night at Sunset beach outside of Santa Cruise, for those who are traveling, as well as a full weekend of experiential activities and open space workshops! More details (and a full invite) are coming once you register—save the date and get ready for a weekend (or day) that’s equal parts playful, professional, and adventurous!

For more information, follow us on Instagram and Facebook!

See you out there,
