We will be returning to N-Sid-Sen. The NW Conference of the United Church of Christ (the organization responsible for operating Camp N-Sid-Sen) made remarkable strides in restoring our trust regarding the way the facility is operated. \nThe dates available to us for next year were limited (and did not include the September dates we had for this year’s camp)\, so we are going to try something new. Next year’s dates will be June 9-14\, 2026. We won’t have to worry about the scorching heat and wildfire smoke we often experience in August. \nWe have secured commitments from two remarkable Dance Leaders\, both of whom have been with us before. We are very pleased to announce that Wilderness Dance Camp 2026 will be led by Gayan Long & Jennifer Friedman. \nAnd we have a new theme –\nRiding the Cosmic Wave:\nresting in the real\nbuilding spacious capacity \nDance Leader Bios\nJennifer Friedman\n\nOnce a touring singer/songwriter with two albums of original folk music\, Jennifer Friedman is a certified Dance leader and Mentor in the DUP tradition living in Colorado. \nShe founded and led the Longmont and Lafayette\, CO DUP Circles for 17 years and has been a long-time member of the Canyonlands\, Paonia\, CO and Puerto Morelos\, Mexico Dance Camp Teams.
