Sequanota's Happy Camper Fun Run

Join us for the 4th Annual Happy Camper Fun Run! This benefit 5K is an annual fundraising event for Sequanota camper scholarships. This year, we are excited to combine this event with the Love Your Mother Earth Retreat. On April 20th, lace up your running (or walking!) shoes to take part in the Happy Camper Fun Run. All ages and abilities are invited to participate. 

You are invited to come to Camp Sequanota to race on-site, or participate by running wherever you live! Please see below for the on-site schedule of events, which will include Earth Day activities and a worship service on Sunday. 

Our goal this year is to raise $6,000…that’s 15 camper scholarships!

About Camp Sequanota

Sequanota is a place of connection: Connection to Christ, to creation, and to community. When at Sequanota, guests are able to gather and form connections and relationships that would be difficult to form in other environments. People are feeling more isolated than ever before. Sequanota is a place that grants guests the opportunity to connect to God, to nature, and to others.

Whether you come to Sequanota for a retreat, for summer camp, to volunteer, or for an event, you will be sure to form meaningful connections while you are here and take them with you when you go. 

We are accredited by the American Camp Association. To learn more about our programs, visit www.sequanota.com.

The Sequanota Camper Scholarship Fund ensures that all campers have the opportunity to come to camp, regardless of finances. Be a part of supporting Sequanota campers by participating in the Annual Happy Camper Fun Run or sponsoring a participant today.
