Over the course of 60+ years, Waycross has grown to become an important center for leadership development and personal and spiritual growth.  Campers and program participants acquire new skills, find quiet time to contemplate their lives, and renew their connection with nature and spirit in Waycross’ contemplative and secluded natural setting.  For so many who come here, from nearby or from far away, Waycross has become an open door to a community where they belong, an anchor in their lives, and a place to come home. Below you will find more information on how you can help this well-loved community continue to thrive.

ANNUAL FUND

A vibrant tradition of giving is at the heart of Waycross’ success in maintaining its exceptional spiritual and leadership services.  The Waycross Annual Fund ensures that program improvements are the best and most innovative available. The fund also  provides funding for  facility improvements, which make their implementation possible.  Your support of the Annual Fund serves this very worthy cause. Memorial and estate gifts endow the future and ensure stability and long-term growth.

SUMMER CAMP SCHOLARSHIP FUND

Every summer Waycross strives to host hundreds of happy campers. Waycross' subscribes to the ‘No Child Left Behind’ policy. The goal is to prevent youth from missing out on the summer camp experience due to finances. The staff works with families by seeing how much the family can afford, setting up payment plans and filling in the gaps with scholarship funds. Parishes have also come together to send their youth to Waycross.

In past camping seasons the community made it possible for 200+ children and young adults to become campers. That is why we are asking people to continue giving the gift of summer camp. The camping experience changes lives by providing new skills, building confidence and giving them a creative environment to explore who they are and what they can become.
