Our Conference Camp & Retreat Centers have a long history of providing financial assistance (camperships) to families that are not otherwise able to send their children to summer camp. In 1972, the Myra Morris Campership Fund was established by persons in the Conference to provide financial assistance to families who could not afford to send their children to one of our Conference camps.

There are any number of things that our campers may find that they would like to have with them while attending their favorite place in the world, camp; pleasant days full of sunshine and cool evenings spent in the company of friends come quickly to mind.

"A Day Apart for Older Adults of the Burlington District" is continuing into a second year at Chestnut Ridge. It was begun out of a coordinated undertaking by The Burlington District, the North Carolina Conference Committee on Older Adults and NC United Methodist Camp & Retreat Ministries.
