Take time for great outdoor activities like paddle boat rides, beach volleyball, and hiking. You are never too young or too old to enjoy being family at Camp Guggenheim! Come celebrate family ... be strengthened by what you experience…gain insight from other families you meet…share the love of your family with others.Family Guggenheim weekends are facilitated by a team which includes Family Guggenheim Directors Deacon Henry and Dayna Leader, a chaplain, and other families from the diocese.
