Welcome Back Alumni

If you’ve been a camper, staff member, attended a retreat, ski trip or hiked with us on a backpack trip we consider you a Sonlight Alumni.
Since the first Sonlight backpack trip in 1979, Sonlight has become home to thousands of staff and campers. We are grateful that you are part of the Sonlight story.

“Being on staff I understood for the first time what it feels like to be unabashedly yourself, and for people to love who that crazy, goofy, quirky person is. I learned that you can love others so deeply, even when they’re different from yourself…. I learned that who you are is good enough, because it’s exactly who you’re supposed to be. Spending the summer at Sonlight was the best choice I’ve ever made, there’s nothing better than being here.”
