Camp Inside Out July 28th- Aug 3rd, 2002 Siddhachalam, NJ
Camp Inside Out is a camp that was created by youth for youth to teach the core values of Jainism and to give young Jains entering 6th, 7th, and 8th grades a forum to meet others who share a similar background. Similar retreat was held at Siddhachalam in Blairstown, NJ in August 2001. The success of last year's camp was a true indication for need of such a Camp.
The camp is reminiscent of the spirit of Acharya Sushil Muniji's commitment to educating the next generation of Jains in America. Catered specifically for youth, this retreat interfaces the philosophical fundamentals and the practical applications of Jainism in an environment filled with creative, social, and physical activities for the mind, body and spirit.
