The other 50% of all event revenue (after expenses) will support the GCCAA mission of Membership, Stewardship, Fellowship, and Scholarship. Where can I stay if I am attending the event?

What if I am an official member of the Good Counsel Camp Alumni Association? If you are an official member of the GCCAA, your membership benefits include free registration to the event (you must still register for the event). In addition to the 75th event itself (on Saturday), all official members of the GCCAA are invited to spend the entire weekend with us for an Alumni gathering (Friday - Sunday). In addition to the Lunch and Dinner being offered to all attendees on Saturday, Alumni members will be offered a Friday Dinner and Sunday Breakfast. For Alumni members staying through the entire weekend, you will be able to reserve a spot in a cabin on camp property. Those staying the weekend may be asked to help with various aspects of the event, like set up, clean up, etc. I would like to become a member of the GCCAA to get free registration, can I still become one? We are always welcoming new members to the GCCAA and we are currently offering a $10 New Member Special from now until the 75th Anniversary. Registration for the 75th event is $0 (no cost) to all GCCAA members. Membership has its benefits - becoming a member will enable you to stay all weekend or join just for the event day itself. |
