Bart Geissinger

Executive Director

I am richly blessed to be serving as Executive Director. Some of my greatest childhood memories are of this place and I couldn’t wait to introduce my son to Camp Washington. The community here is inclusive and welcoming. We invite God’s children of all ages into a safe place to explore their faith, and their relationship and responsibility to creation, a place to simply play and be God’s children. The simple joys of a sunset, a campfire, a summer afternoon rain shower, the smile of a child making a new friend, the high five of a victorious capture the flag game are the things that bring me joy. I couldn’t think of a better place to “work” and I am so excited about the future of Camp Washington.

Ben Thompson

“In Your Own Words: Retelling Scripture”

Join Maggie Breen, NE Region Missionary, and Fr. Brett Figlewski, St. Paul’s, Bantam, as we crack open our sacred Scripture together.  We will discover how meaningful it can be when we put ourselves into the Scripture, by working in small groups to retell the lessons.  Our time together will start with a reflection by Maggie, followed by work in small groups to shape the lessons for the day, and it will all be tied together as Rev. Brett leads us through the holy mystery of Communion in his own words.  Come and see; come and experiment; come and experience together a new way to read, hear, and inwardly digest Holy Scripture. 

$10.00 suggested donation for dinner. Please call to register - 860.567.9623

Programs Director

Why I am excited to be at Camp Washington >

“I am overjoyed to join the Camp Washington team and become a part of the Connecticut community! I am coming from the University of Arkansas where I will be graduating with my Master of Education in Higher Education this May. My camp experience began before I was old enough to attend, joining my parents at the camp where they volunteered.” Kallie said, “I have had the privilege to experience camp as a camper, CIT, counselor, and staff in both Arizona and Alaska! Camp changes lives and I am excited to be in a camp community that is a part of so many people’s stories.”

 

Kallie shared, “As much as I love camp, I love to star gaze in my hammock, go to local farmers markets, go on day trips to places I haven’t been before- basically get out and explore! If you have any must-sees or recommendations, let me know! I also love some good coffee, family time, puzzles, and being wrapped up in a fuzzy blanket. I can’t wait to see summer camp in action, and intentional year-round programs blossom! I look forward to meeting you, whether at camp, over coffee, or in the community, and hearing your questions, ideas, or anything else you would like to share.”
