Fall Leadership Weekend

2020 Fall is Coming!

GSEP is excited to host our signature adult training event on Saturday, October 10, 2020. This year’s event will look a little different due to the ongoing Covid-19 situation. We’ve streamlined to a one day format, offering four 1 hour workshops. We hope to be able to host an in-person event at Camp Laughing Waters in Gilbertsville, but are also prepared to host a virtual event, if restrictions are in place. More details to come!

This year’s theme: Mystery!
