										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Double Your Impact with Our 2024 Annual Giving Campaign</strong><br />
Camp Jamison is thrilled to announce the launch of our 2024 Annual Giving Campaign. As we set our sights on a fundraising goal of $10,000, we invite you to join us in making a profound impact on the lives of children through unforgettable camp experiences. Thanks to the generosity of our matching gift sponsor, the first $2,000 in donations will be matched dollar for dollar. This is your chance to double the difference you make—donate today!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>A Journey of Growth and Leadership</strong><br />
Our family has expanded significantly since Camp Jamison opened its doors in 2011 with just nine campers. Yet, our mission remains the same: to provide a diverse, inclusive, and affordable overnight camp experience. We are privileged to see our campers, like Zahaad and Josiah, grow into their potential each summer. Starting as 8-year-olds in 2016, they have spent summers swimming, paddling, and playing basketball. Now, they are stepping into roles as Counselors-in-Training (CITs) for 2024, ready to lead and inspire the next generation.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Sponsor a Camper: A Seat for Every Dreamer</strong><br />
Despite our successes, the need to support eager campers remains. This year, we&#8217;ve allocated over $60,000 in scholarships to enable 60 campers to join us. Yet, the financial barrier still stands for many. It takes $1,500 to sponsor a camper for a week, allowing them to learn, grow, and thrive at Camp Jamison. Your donation can help ensure no child is left behind this summer. Click [here](#) to donate now and maximize your impact.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Levels of Giving</strong><br />
$5,000—<strong>Camp Director</strong>: This position supports five campers. Perks include the exclusive Camp Jamison picture book and an invitation to the 2024 summer session.<br />
$3,000—<strong>Lodge Leader</strong>: This position supports two campers. Perks include the Camp Jamison picture book and recognition in our annual report.<br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Camp Jamison 2024 Update: Full Registration &amp; Your Path to Future Opportunities</strong></p>
<p>As the Camp Jamison community eagerly anticipates the upcoming 2024 summer session, nestled in the enchanting foothills of the Catskills Mountains from July 21 to July 27, we are thrilled and humbled to announce that all available spots have been swiftly filled. This milestone is a testament to the strength of our community and the impactful, memorable experiences that define Camp Jamison.</p>
<p>While we celebrate this achievement, we also recognize the disappointment it may bring to those still hoping to secure a spot for their child this summer. In response, we are focusing our efforts on the waitlist &#8211; not as a consolation, but as a proactive step toward future opportunities and an expanded Camp Jamison experience.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Embracing the Waitlist: A Forward-Looking Strategy</strong></p>
<p>The waitlist is more than a backup plan; it&#8217;s an integral part of our commitment to inclusivity and growth. Here’s why joining the waitlist is a wise choice for families still looking to become part of the Camp Jamison legacy:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Immediate Opportunities:</strong> Spots occasionally open due to unforeseen circumstances. Being on the waitlist ensures you&#8217;ll be among the first we contact.</li>
<li><strong>Vision for Expansion:</strong> With aspirations of additional funding, we aim to welcome more campers in future sessions and are excitedly planning for a two-week camp in 2025, commemorating our 15th session. This expansion is geared toward accommodating a larger, more diverse group of campers, reinforcing our mission.</li>
<li><strong>Priority Access:</strong> Waitlist members receive early notification and registration privileges for Camp Jamison 2025, offering a head start in securing a spot for next summer&#8217;s adventure.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>How to Join the Waitlist and Why It Matters</strong></p>
<p>Joining the waitlist signals hope, support, and engagement with the future of Camp Jamison. It&#8217;s an easy yet meaningful step, emphasizing your interest and anticipation for what’s to come:</p>
<p>1. Visit the Camp Jamison this link<br />
https://forms.gle/Mv9UjDd4bqNB9msW7 and Fill in your details, along with your camper&#8217;s, to ensure personalized and timely communication.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Looking Forward with Optimism and Collective Support</strong></p>
<p>The complete registration for our 2024 session is a clear indicator of the trust and enthusiasm our community places in Camp Jamison. As we set our sights on the future, bolstered by the potential for more funding and the dream of a two-week session in 2025, we&#8217;re inspired by our families&#8217; collective spirit and shared aspirations.</p>
<p>Being on the waitlist is an active step into the future of Camp Jamison. It&#8217;s an opportunity to be at the forefront of our expansion, ready to embrace more joyous experiences, forge lasting friendships, and create unforgettable memories.</p>
<p>We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has expressed interest in Camp Jamison and warmly encourage those who wish to join us to consider the waitlist as their gateway to future adventures. Together, we can anticipate a Camp Jamison that&#8217;s more inclusive, vibrant, and impactful than ever before.</p>
<p><strong>Thank you for your support, enthusiasm, and patience. Here&#8217;s to a future filled with more opportunities to learn, grow, and explore together at Camp Jamison.</strong></p>
