LightHouse volunteers and students work, explore and rejuvenate at Enchanted Hills Camp
In early November, Enchanted Hills Camp was host to three very special groups, including volunteers, Health and Wellness Retreat students and young participants in the LightHouse Youth Program (the first of a series of three Sensing the Seasons nature-themed retreats). They were there to learn, have fun and help rebuild Enchanted Hills Camp, still recovering from the 2017 Wine Country fire.
We’ve put together some photos from that busy and exciting weekend.
