Friends Day
A day of conviviality at the Camp Foundation
On Sunday 11 June, about thirty people accepted the invitation of the Foundation Board and met on the hill of Vaumarcus for the Friends' Day.
Under a magnificent sun, this day delighted the participants as well as its organisers.
The aim of this Friend's Day?
To discover, or rediscover, the Camp, the people who make it come alive and its projects during one day, after several years shaken by the pandemic.
The morning's programme includes
- discussions and explanations of the links between the participants and the Camp Foundation
- a tour of the seven-station site, with descriptions of future projects, including plans for the construction of House 4
- A synthesis and conclusion
- A festive aperitif and barbecue served on the terrace, with live music
It was a pleasure to gather all these people for a day and to share this moment with them in such a beautiful atmosphere !

First wedding of the year 2022
The wedding season is underway at Le Camp Foundation!
At the beginning of April, in mixed weather, we hosted the first wedding of the season. What a joy!
This wedding had a special flavour indeed, as it was the first wedding without health restrictions for a long time.
No masks, no need to scan sanitary passes or check distances in our rooms. Just the joy of seeing our guests enjoy their day with their guests, and savour their moment.
First wedding, and not the last!
We are delighted to welcome many couples who have chosen to marry or celebrate their love on our premises. Whether it is for a simple aperitif, a ceremony or a wedding from A to Z, our facilities offer many possibilities.

Wood cutting at the Camp
Forest maintenance before the arrival of the high season
This week, the loggers and the forestry service carried out a major wood cut in the neighbouring forest belonging to the Camp Foundation.
Some old and damaged trees were in danger of collapsing. It was therefore important, for safety reasons, to carry out this work.
In addition to removing potentially dangerous trees, it will also allow new growth and plantations to have more space and resources to develop.
Some of the cut wood will be chipped, and will be used on the floor of some of the play areas on the site. Another part will be used as firewood in our houses, especially in the Zwingli house. We can say that we produce our own resources.
This work was carried out during the low season, so as not to disturb our guests and to allow everyone to be safe outside the Camp. In particular, pedestrian access to the forest was prohibited.
