It’s hard to believe but our happy place is turning 100 this year! Join us for a weekend of festivities as we mark the
100th Anniversary of Sokol Camp!
100 years of Sokol Camp wouldn’t be possible without YOU! Here’s a few ways to be a part of the celebration.
- Mark your calendar! We’ve got events planned for the whole weekend of June 14 – 16, 2024. Save the date and plan to attend. (more details below).
- Volunteer at one of the planned events – we’ll need bartenders, food service, raffle ticket sales, clean up, parking attendants, and a few other jobs. Think about pitching in for a couple hours to help make the events a success! Let us know where you’d like to help.
- Share your memories of why you love Sokol Camp! We will have several different displays of photos, videos, archives and more so that we can all think back and remember the many wonderful moments we’ve shared at Sokol Camp. The more memories we have from each of you, the larger the display. Be a part of history and send us some of your photos, share your memories of your favorite times at Camp, or write up a quick note about what Sokol Camp means to you. We want to include memories and photos from everyone who is willing to share them! Dig out those old albums and send over some copies to info [at] sokolstl.org
