Workcamp colleague Mike Gray has led Workcamps to Pine Ridge, SD for almost 2 decades, developing deep connections in the Lakota reservation. For the past four years, William Penn House has joined Mike on these Workcamps. We spend two weeks engaged in projects that engage in the continuing of sacred traditions while addressing the challenges of the present with a vision for the future. This is a great experience for those who enjoy beautiful places, as we camp on the edge of the Badlands, and like to explore new landscapes and sometimes painful parts of our history and present. Fees for this Workcamp are $850 for one week or $1550 for both weeks, not including transportation to/from Rapid City, SD. Payments can be made by check or credit card. $200 deposit is required by May 1. (williampennhouse.org/Pine.Ridge.2013.Registration)
