Additional Information:

The OYYACM always seeks to ensure our formation offerings have an extra touch that goes above and beyond the normal experience.  In a spirit of Radical Hospitality, we will be sending a special surprise via email post confirmation of attendance (prior to the formation offering). 

Audience: Basecamps accommodate up to 20 participants and welcome all Youth, Young Adult, and Campus Ministry Leaders (full-time, part-time, volunteer), Ministry Team Volunteers/Catechists, and any Supervisors, Priests, Non-parish Organization Representatives, and other Parish Ministry Leaders that find the presenting topic relevant.

Registration Note: For this April Basecamp (due to the unique nature of the topic), the OYYACM is considering opening up registrations beyond our typical limit of 20 participants.  Once the registration portal has reached its limit of 20 spots, the OYYACM will assess adding additional participants.  You can contact Julia at jquezada@cathdal.org if you would like to attend, but were not one of the initial 20 participants registered. Also, we ask that if you register and are no longer able to attend the online formation offering please inform Julia, so that someone else may be able to attend.
