Camp St. Herman is an opportunity for children (grades 4-12) from across the diocese to come together in a safe place to learn about the faith of our fathers, participate in the sacraments and make lasting friendships. The program of Camp St. Herman is modeled after the program of the Antiochian Village (Pennsylvania) of the Antiochian Archdiocese, and continues the tradition of the annual Diocese Youth Rally of the OCA Diocese of New England. Camp is held at the St. Methodios Faith & Heritage Center in Contoocook, NH.
Summer 2021 Update
Pascha 2021
Dear Campers, Parents, and friends of Camp St. Herman,
Christ is Risen! Truly He is Risen!
Due to challenges we face from the ongoing pandemic, we have decided not to hold camp this year. We are very sad about this, and know that many of you were looking forward to being together at camp. We look forward to 2022, when we hope Camp St. Herman will hold its inaugural camp session. In the meantime, plans are already underway for our annual Family Camp tentatively scheduled for October 1-3, 2021. More information will be available soon!
There are still openings at our sister camps: the Antiochian Village in Pennsylvania (avcamp.org/programs/summer-camp/summer-camp-2021/), and also at the Metropolis of Boston Camp in New Hampshire (www.metropolisofbostoncamp.org/summer-camp-20211.html). We encourage you to explore these options for this summer.
Wishing you all a blessed Paschal season!
Yours in the Risen Christ,
Khalil Samara
CSH Executive Director
