Area Camp and Retreat Council

The Camp and Retreat Ministries of the Minnesota and Dakotas United Methodist Conferences work closely together through the Area Camp and Retreat Council, a joint advisory team with equal representation from both conferences. Meeting quarterly, this council provides strategic guidance and support to the Area Executive Director of Camp and Retreat Ministries, helping to expand offerings, share best practices, and strengthen camp and retreat ministries across the region.
