Warm wishes for a blessed 2018 from the team at Camp Weed.  I would like to share a special word of thanks to each and every group that visited Camp Weed and Cerveny Conference Center in 2017.  It has been an incredible first year to be on the Diocesan team and a blessed eight months serving as Executive Director of your camp and conference center, and I thank you for the warm welcome and support.

As we approach 2018, we are excited to see the calendar continue to fill from January through the spring months.  I would like to personally encourage each church in the Diocese to consider Camp Weed and Cerveny Conference Center for their upcoming gatherings and retreats.  If there is a date that you are considering, please call us as soon as possible to get your dates locked in.  The staff is looking forward to welcoming the dedicated groups like The Bishop Institute for Ministry and Leadership, Episcopal Christian Women, St. Marks, Jacksonville and Grace, Orange Park, just to name a few, as well as catching up with the parishioners that have not been out to Camp Weed in a while. 

I will be reaching out to our parishes to see if there is a time I can come meet with them.  It is our goal to see how Camp Weed can better assist our churches with their programs and overall mission.  Thank you again for the opportunity to be a part of making a difference in the lives of others by spreading the good news of our Savior, Jesus Christ.  Please stop in to say hello, it is always great to see you and hear the stories of what makes you proud of Camp Weed.   

Peace,

Kym Hughes
