This Labor Day Weekend, we invite you to return to the Primitive Camp in the Pine Barrens for our fundraising event: Hands on the Land.
After months of negotiations and with the support of our community, 4EEE now holds a lease for Primitive Camp, making it an official part of our mission and vision for the future.
With that blessing comes responsibility: to tend, clean, restore, and caretake the land, and to ensure it can continue to support programs, families, and deep connection for years to come.
That’s where you come in.
We're launching our first-ever: “Gather to Give” series, donation-based gatherings that will focus on giving back. Instructors and staff will volunteer their time and skills, leading us in different projects across varying locations.
Our first event will be hosted at the Primitive Camp!
This isn’t our typical Family Camp but all ages are welcome. This is something different, a time to gather with purpose, to put our Hands on the Land, and to give back to the place that has shaped our children, our families, and our path.
There will be:
- Lighting the Sacred fire in Grandfathers Camp
- Caretaking Projects for all Ages: maintaining the many ‘story’ trails in and out of camp
- Stories of the Pines
- Opportunities to explore lesser-known areas of camp
- Potential skill-workshop offered by instructors
- Simple meals will be provided
We have been facing quite difficult financial challenges this year, but we believe that what we offer has never felt more important than now. When the crucial task of securing the Primitive Camp became a reality, there was never a question in our hearts about it and today we are so grateful for this outcome.
This will be our first fundraising event in a larger campaign to support our programs from the East to the West Coast. A $100,000 initiative that will support 4EEE not just to keep the lights on, but to protect the land, programs, and teachings that MUST be given to future generations of youth and families.
This will be a donation-only gathering, with a suggested donation amount. Every dollar will go toward the stewardship of Primitive Camp and our $100,000 campaign to sustain all that 4EEE holds.
We can’t wait to gather with you.
