Taylor Upper Camp

Every day at the James C. Kennedy Mountain Campus, people of all ages engage in thoughtfully designed experiences to discover new things about themselves, their relationship with their peers, and their community. We believe the natural environment enhances human connection by fostering the time and space for meaningful experiences, mentoring, and reflection. Groups that host their events at James C. Kennedy Mountain Campus find that the natural environment is not just in the background but an integral part of their experience.
