Camp Haiastan’s 65th Season is Almost Here!

Are you ready to put away your scarves and mittens and take out your sunscreen and shorts? Are you sitting in class each day wondering when this cold weather will end and how many days are left until summer vacation?

If you have said yes to any of the above questions we have the perfect summer hot spot just for you! If you are between the ages of 5 to 16, consider going to a place where Armenian children from all over the world come and spend their summers together. This place is called Camp Haiastan, where strangers turn to family, tears turn to laughter, and a two-week session turns to a lifelong memory.

The Camp Board of Directors, Camp staff, and AYF Central Camp Committee (CCC) are all working together to plan an amazing summer. The 65th camp season is quickly approaching, and the 2015 CCC is preparing by coming up with intriguing and engaging lecture topics.

Each year one weekend is picked to have a Camp Clean-Up, where we devote our time to shining up our wonderful campgrounds and preparing it for the upcoming summer. It is also an enjoyable way to get the community to be involved and help out. This year’s Camp Clean-Up will be Saturday, May 16, and we hope you can make it to give us a helping hand! More information to come on that.

Meanwhile, to invoke excitement as the summer approaches, keep your eyes peeled each Sunday for #WhyCampWednesday and #SummerStreetSunday posts on social media! We hope you enjoy contributing to these social media trends to boost excitement for Camp.

We look forward to having yet another successful summer starting on June 28. Go to www.camphaiastan.org for more information on Camp Haiastan and how to enroll!
