fun

"There are so many fun things to do at Joy: play chair volleyball, toss cornhole, participate in a drum circle or play Pigs in the late evening. You can read a book, take a walk on the beautiful grounds or just sit and talk.  There are crafts to be made if that is your thing.  Endless fun at your fingertips!!"

keep movin'

"Nothing is required at camp, and you can sleep all day if you want to.  But Eleanor, 101 years old, inspires us to join her in dances, and there are groups taking walks, doing Yoga and chair exercise.  It's fun to keep movin' at camp!"

​friends

"The first time I came to Joy camp I didn't know anyone.  By the time the weekend was over, I had several budding friendships.  Now, 25 years later, these women are an important part of my life.  I've moved to Iowa, but I still attend camp almost every year so I can spend time with these amazing friends."
