The next Winter Witchcamp is February 22-26, 2018
Winter's Kiss Draws Us Down Deep
Winter Witchcamp is a five-day intensive in the Reclaiming tradition that includes trance work, healing, drumming, dancing, chanting, storytelling, and powerful energy work. At Winter Witchcamp we seek to develop new magical skills while deepening our relationship to Mystery. We embrace the Reclaiming Principles of Unity. We honor the Reclaiming Tradition's core values, including caring for the environment and our families and communities, and embracing diversity of all kinds, including diversity of gender and sexual orientation. However, you must be at least 18 years of age to attend camp. We honor the Runes and the Norse Mysteries. We are aware that some who honor those Mysteries are also white supremacist. We definitively do not align with those beliefs and work toward social justice as well as honoring diversity and multiplicity in all of its forms in our tradition.
Our Camp Intention: From Freya's Hall, Winter Witchcamp seeks to deepen our connection to the land of the upper Mississippi River. We revere and revel in the beauty and wonder of winter. As a community, we are awakening to our skills as conscious co-creators of the multiverse in order to manifest more loving, beautiful, and joyful worlds, families, clans, and camps.
*In our winter hall you will find many things. Here you can find the core that supports our intention.

Sarah Basil held a number of important roles as a weaver and fortunately we have a strong team to step in. This year Karin will be holding the role of Registrar as well as Community Liaison (with Harper) and Copper will be taking on maintaining the web site.
