Theme Speaker:
Matthew Crary (Unitarian Universalist Minister, Riverside Universalist Unitarian Church)
"What's Going On?" The title of Marvin Gaye's 1971 socially conscious masterpiece is our theme. Inspired by the Occupy Movement, the "Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream" symposium of the Pachamama Alliance and the lifelong work of Joanna Macy, the Rev. Crary will lead participants in grappling with what's going on in our individual lives, and in our world including the environment, socially and spiritually.

Camp de Benneville Pines
Camp de Benneville Pines (http://www.uucamp.org/)
is owned and operated by the Pacific Southwest Unitarian Universalist
District.
It is located at 6,800 feet in the San Bernardino National Forest among towering
ponderosa pines, oaks and cedars with a creek nearby, and Jenks Lake within
walking and hiking distance. It has an Olympic sized heated swimming pool and
hot tub. Fresh, nutritionally balanced meals are served with vegetarian meals on
request. There are no buildings between Camp de Benneville Pines and
Mt. San Gorgonio, the highest mountain in southern California, so this location is truly
a nature gem!
Accommodations
Rustic cabins and dorms are equipped with new bunks and mattresses. Bring your own sleeping bag or bedding. Cabin rooms sleep up to 4. Dorms sleep up to 6. Cabin end rooms have one double bed. All buildings have gas heat and bathrooms with showers. Craig’s Cabin has large double beds and a common area with kitchen.
