Do you feel restricted? Are there things holding you back from reaching your full potential? Maybe it's student loans. Maybe it's your relationships with your parents. Or maybe it's an old sports injury. This spring, challenge those limitations through an interactive, insightful, and experience driven weekend.

This year, the Spring Gathering wants to help you gain Spiritual/Emotional, Financial, and Physical freedom! Experienced presenters will share on aspects of Spiritual and Emotional, Financial, and Physical well being. Whether it's creating a healthier body, or a healthier marriage, we'll be talking about how to live our best life for ourselves and God. Presentations are geared towards high school through adult, but don't worry, there's plenty of fun for the whole family!

Laurel Nakai has come on board as the children's coordinator. Young kids will have a chance to take part in games and activities, and have a fun and safe place to stay while mom and dad check out a few of the sessions.

We're so excited to bring some fresh ideas and new content, to the place we all know and love. So mark May 20-22nd as: "Shehaqua Spring Gathering: freedom" in your calendar!

The 2016 Shehaqua Spring Gathering will be on May 20-22. More news will be posted on this site as this year's fun-filled Spring Gethering approaches!

Shehaqua Spring Gathering: Friday, May 15 – Sunday, May 17
Director: Tasnah Moyer

Spring has sprung! Time to shake off the winter blues, all that stress from shoveling and being cooped up all winter, and join us for our annual Spring Gathering at our beloved Camp Shehaqua! We're mixing things up a little this year!

First off, we've got an awesome staff lined up! Danny Angelino is my Assistant Director (we train them young ;)). Brooke Abrahams and Kyra Moyer are heading up our education. Jake Mas and Francis Marchitelli are our Adventure Team. And Naomi Parks, Ethan McKenna, Carolyn Bonini, and Joe Hinkle are our Music Crew.

In line with the Spring Gathering's adventure theme, our motto this year is "Breaking Free!". Life is about growing, using the opportunities that come our way to Break Free of the things that hold us back—our fears, doubts, worries, insecurities—so that we can achieve our fullest potential! Thus we are excited to introduce Shehaqua's first Challenge Obstacle Course, the perfect event to push the mind, body, and soul to the next level together with friends and family!

Who doesn't love music and the way it moves the soul? We're kicking off the spring with a rockin' live concert in the meadow! Featuring multiple acts, one headline band, and dancing. Enjoy the bonfire, s'mores, and games with family members of all ages. Bring your friends and family. See you there!

Struggling through classes and/or work? Need a break? Looking for adventure, challenge and an adrenaline rush? Don’t lose hope, because you're in luck! May 16–18, we will be having an exhilarating adventure! The Shehaqua Spring Gathering! This year there will be an array of engaging activities such as whitewater rafting for families, paintballing for tough strategists, and an open mic for striving artists.

If some of the more adventurous activities aren't quite your cup of tea, no problem! We have an alternative schedule planned for anyone looking for a more relaxing weekend in the beautiful Pocono Mountains. And there will be crafts, sports, discussions, and various other activities to join in.

Struggling through classes and/or work? Need a break? The Shehaqua Spring Gathering is just around the corner! From May 17–19, we will have a retreat that is both stimulating and relaxing. This year we are switching it up, and staying at Camp Shehaqua for the entire workshop. There will be two tracks:. One set of activities will be designed for families with young children, and the other track is aimed at young adults. The theme of the workshop is "Dare to Live," and it will offer a challenging experience that will bring you closer to your peers. The young adults group will take part in a game of epic proportions, as well as a challenging hike. There will also be camp fires, testimonies and everything else you know and love about Camp Shehaqua.
