Camp Murray for YouthJune 13-19, 2010 A circle of UUs at Lake Murray http://www.campmurray.org/ First Unitarian Church of Oklahoma City is sponsoring a youth camp again this year to be held June 13 – 19 at Lake Murray in Ardmore, Oklahoma. Our goal is to provide a camp for youth age 14 – 18 that will encourage leadership, community, and exploration of UU identity. OKC has a long history of providing quality youth programming and is anxious to include youth from all over the Southwest District. Our theme this year is "Exploring the Hundred Acre Wood!". At camp we will have a wide array of activities, including social action, workshops and worship, to help you find what you're looking for. For more information contact Ann McDermott (
