Not familiar with the Eliot Institute? Read general info about the Eliot Institute and their camps further below, after the teasers about the two August camps. (There are also a video and a bunch of photos down there.)

Mary Mason and Susan St. John will be at the south Learning Station in Nathan Johnson Hall before and after the service on July 6 to answer questions and tell you a little about their Eliot experiences over the years.

Registration is open through July 26.

What is Eliot?

It’s a family camp filled with laughter, singalongs, swimming in the lagoon, talent shows, and group meals in the dining hall.

It’s a retreat, with thought-provoking morning programs followed by small group discussions, and additional opportunities to explore social justice issues.

It’s an opportunity for spiritual connection, with worship services each evening.

It’s a chance to express creativity - explore music in choir, rock band and coffeehouse performances, learn a new visual art, dance, or tie-dye.

It's a safe space for personal growth, from the profound to the silly.

It’s a time to enjoy nature-walk in the woods, watch the sunset, listen to the birds, and look for shells on the shore of Hood Canal.

It’s a multi-generational community of people who find their happy place at Seabeck Conference Center.

Eliot is all of these things and more!
