ISKCON New Vrindaban in West Virginia is offering devotee families two exciting summer camps for children this June – the Bhakti Arts Summer Camp and the Little Devi Summer Camp.
Bhakti Arts Summer Camp
The first event is the Bhakti Arts Summer Camp, to be held Jun 17 – 21st, 2024, 9am-4pm daily, for boys and girls aged 4-10 years old. The Bhakti Arts Summer Camp is a wonderful way for your children to experience the spiritual culture and beauty of our Bhakti path. Each day begins with yoga and japa meditation, introducing a fun-filled day with dance and movement, arts and crafts inspired by India, stories from the sacred texts with puppet shows, visiting the cows at the goshala, outside games, and friendship-building activities. A prasadam snack and lunch will be provided to the campers each day. The Camp will be facilitated by Gaurangi Priya Dasi, who was born and raised in the Hare Krishna movement and remembers fondly the immersive devotional play of her childhood, singing songs about Krishna, dancing about him, and hearing stories from the Srimad Bhagavatam. She has been running summer camps for children, along with her mother, Kamalini Dasi, for the past 17 years. Her intention and hope is to give her campers what she calls “happy Krishna memories,” with which they can learn and practice Bhakti in a wholesome, caring, and adventurous environment. Hundreds of children have attended her camps over the years, and she is very excited to provide this opportunity for the first time in the beautiful New Vrindaban surroundings. You can learn more about her service here. The cost for this retreat is $250. To register, click here. For additional information or questions you can send an email here or call (919) 259-1625.
