After a quiet night’s sleep wake up at Camp Glen Brook in rural New Hampshire surrounded by woods and mountains. Wander into the dining hall to enjoy coffee and breakfast.

After breakfast, we gather together as a group for morning meeting, a time where we lay out the day’s activities.

Next is morning workshops. Workshops are led by people just like you — attendees with skills, talents, and interests that they want to share. You’ll meet with this same small group throughout the weekend, focusing on a particular topic or activity. This is a place to pick up fun new skills or have conversations that go beyond just “small talk”.

At lunch, we gather to share a healthy, hearty meal, with options for vegans and omnivores alike. We like to maintain the feeling of fellowship (and keep costs down) by working collectively to prepare the food and clean up.

The people who come to Spring have an enormous array of talents to teach and knowledge of fun activities to lead — too many to give each one its own weekend-long workshop. So after afternoon meeting we hold one-shot workshops, which change daily. There will be a grab-bag of casual activities to choose from. There will also be plenty of time in the afternoon to do whatever you want; swim, kayak, paddle board, or canoe in the brook-fed pond, create weird stuff using the art supplies in the barn, hike the miles of trails, cavort in the green fields, play games, read, sunbathe, nap, or whatever you please.

We’ll come together again in the dinning hall for a delicious dinner in the evening.

For the weekend, everyone in the community will be part of a smaller ring of five to eight people each. These will be the people with whom you’ll be assigned to dining room prep and cleanup detail which happens a few times through the weekend, but more than that, they’ll be your posse, your comrades, your partners-in-crime. Each evening, after dinner, you’ll spend time with them just talking stuff over.

Each night there’s a different group activity offered. Coffee house/talent show, games, scavenger hunt and dance party (bring your crazy outfits), bonfires, late night moments of group reverence.

Crash out in a funky A-frame, or a room in a rambling farmhouse. There are approximately 20 bedrooms at our disposal with varying sizes and amounts of privacy.
