Imagine a Summer Week at Naramata Centre
CHANGE - Summer Registration Postponed - from Sunday January 29 at 2pm to Sunday February 12 at 2pm.
We apologize for this major inconvenience to you. We want this process to run smoothly and fairly. For people who are out of the country on this date, please contact our office register@naramatacentre.net or call extension 201. Please use the “Getting Ready for Summer” registration setup to update your family information and add any new participants or enter your family and personal information before registration day. Preregister so that program and accommodation selection is quicker on registration day.
In the mornings...
For early risers morning worship in the chapel
Sing to greet the day
Program time with your group, or in your own retreat
Time for nourishment at your campsite, or in the dining room, or at a cottage picnic table
In the afternoons...
Enjoy the lake – swim, rest in the shade, visit and read
Walk the labyrinth, visit the Healing House or the Spiritual Director
Explore the local area, hike or bike the Okanagan hills
Supper...
Perhaps a potluck with your next door neighbours
Perhaps a delicious meal in the dining room
Perhaps a picnic at the beach
In the evenings...
Gather with all ages for play, prayer, shared experience and singing
Sit in the warmth of a summer evening at your campsite or cottage with new and familiar neighbours
Late evening gatherings for youth, and for adults while the ones who need to sleep and renew are tucked in for the night
Maybe a late night stroll to watch the ever amazing night sky – meteor shower, full moon...what the sky holds for you
You can see that there is much more to a week than the one program you register for – much more than we can communicate in words, on a page!

What’s a Program?
On the registration form you will be asked to choose which ‘program’ you wish to participate in. Here’s what that means:
Adult and Intergenerational Programs
All of the courses listed on the summer pages refer to the Morning Program part of the week-long experience. Courses are led by experienced, skilled leaders who value experiential education, and whose leadership style and approach to learning are in harmony with Naramata Centre’s mission and values. Each Morning Program offers a total of 13 1/2 hours of course time.
