MEET YOUR CAMP COUNSELORS:
Melanie Huggard
author and life consultant
Paul Young
author of the shack and the return to the shack
with special guest:
Justin Stumvoll
Author and life consultant
🌲Picture yourself gathered around the campfire beneath the open sky, a warm mug in hand, listening to Paul Young share stories of God's kindness, belonging, and healing. These evening "Papa Talks" are the kind of conversations that stay with you long after camp ends.
🥾Picture yourself on a trail walk or gathered with new friends after dinner, talking about life, faith, healing, and what it means to become fully yourself. Justin brings honesty, depth, and the kind of perspective that helps people reconnect with hope, purpose, and possibility.
⛺Imagine starting your morning on the porch with coffee, laughter, and a conversation that somehow feels like it was meant just for you. Melanie has a gift for helping people feel seen, known, and welcomed exactly as they are while creating spaces where meaningful friendships naturally grow.
HAS IT BEEN A WHILE SINCE YOU'VE BEEN IN A ROOM WHERE YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO PROVE ANYTHING?
CAMP: I Belong Here isn’t a conference.
It's not a mastermind. It's not a personal growth intensive.
It's not three days of note-taking and trying to become a better version of yourself.
It's a presence-filled camp experience for adults who are tired of performing and ready to experience genuine connection.
COME AS YOU ARE. LEAVE AS FRIENDS
ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE:
For three days, we'll gather beneath the sky, pull up camp chairs, share meals, laugh hard, play games, stay up too late around the fire, and have the kinds of conversations that remind you what it feels like to be fully human.
No conference stage.
No VIP section.
No pretending.
Just real people making room for each other.
Hosted by Melanie Huggard and serving as your camp counselor along with Paul Young. This is a space for people carrying certainty, doubt, joy, grief, curiosity, faith, questions, or simply a desire to belong.
We won't teach you how to belong. We'll make space for you to experience it.
COME AS YOU ARE.
LEAVE WITH FRIENDS.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
MEANINGFUL CONVERSATIONS
The kind that stay with you long after camp is over.
CAMPFIRES & LATE-NIGHT STORIES
Because some of the best moments happen after the schedule ends.
PLAYFUL COMPETITION
Team challenges, laughter, and remembering what it's like to play.
GREAT FOOD & SHARED TABLES
Meals that nourish more than your stomach.
PRESENCE, NOT PERFORMANCE
No pressure to be more spiritual, more healed, more impressive, or more anything.
CAMP COUNSELOR TALKS
Pull up a camping chair and join Melanie Huggard and Paul Young for honest conversations about faith, relationships, belonging, and being human.
NEW FRIENDS
Not networking.
Not small talk.
Actual connection.
Get Real, Laugh Hard, Make New Friends.
CHOOSE YOUR LODGING:
By the way, this is camp style lodging, not hotel style lodging.
All bathrooms on the property, even in-room ensuites, are considered shared community spaces in the daytime during the retreat. We want this to feel relaxed, communal, generous, and easy for everyone attending. All room specifics are listed below.

You may choose to reserve one of our 8 Queen Bedrooms. Each room includes only 1 Queen bed.
Some Queen Bedrooms have an attached (ensuite) bathroom. To help our camp community flow smoothly, all bathrooms are considered shared spaces between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM. This means campers may occasionally need to access attached bathrooms during the day.
If having uninterrupted daytime privacy is important to you, we recommend selecting a Queen Bedroom without an attached bathroom (listed as the first option below).
If having quick access to your own bathroom through the night is important to you, please choose a Queen Bedroom with Attached bathroom.
