Re:Activate 2024

Re:Activate continues to grow and establish itself as an annual event.  As it does we are working to establish protocols and understandings to make this event as safe as possible.  We recognize that overnight activities and especially camping can often pose the greatest risks to young people and will continue to do our best to make all parties aware of these risks and mitigate accordingly. Please read over the following as an outline of some of those things that you need to be aware of:
