Ananda Pune’s 7th Annual Family Camp

Give your family the gift of a great vacation getaway in nature this year!

10-13 May, 2018
with Brahmacharini Prisha, Gaurja, Bara, Jemal & Surya
This Year’s Theme: “GETTING IN TUNE WITH NATURE”

Because our camp falls on Mothers’ Day Weekend this year, we’ll also celebrate Mother Nature, as well as all moms who are with us, in a special way!

In shady settings at the Retreat, you and your family will:

  • Listen to, and learn to sing, inspirational songs about nature from Swamiji, Nayaswami Bharat and his Sharing Nature programme, and traditional camps
  • Make and play natural rhythm instruments
  • Come to appreciate “Aum” as Nature’s song
  • Learn about bird and animal families (we’ll watch several delightful documentaries)
  • Create some amazing new kinds of nature crafts to take home!

  • Get acting and stagecraft tips, put to good use in a play everyone can take part in
  • Engage in “splash and spill” games and competitions (no need for air conditioning!)
  • Gain new camping skills that will carry over to life in the city (such as finding directions with and without a compass; planning great adventures; knowing and raising medicinal and other healthful plants; keeping insects away naturally; keeping cool and warm despite the temperature; and handling unforeseen circumstances)
  • Relax, do some yoga, meditate in the peace of the picturesque Sahyadri foothills
