Our Navigators chapter is a multigenerational alternative to mainstream scouting that brings our values and the 8 UU principles into the outdoors
The bedrock of our UUCP Navigators group is to strive for a more inclusive, multigenerational, non-oppressive space, for our youth. We strive to create an environment that fosters safer spaces for creating memories and experiences with the flora and fauna that live around us. We view our stories and experience through a lens of diversity and attempt to lift each other up as we travel down this path together.

Memorial Weekend Campout at SAWUURA
Next month will be the Memorial Day weekend campout at SAWUURA (Sierra Ancha Wilderness Unitarian Universalist Association). The dates for our May campout are from Friday May 24-Monday May 27. SAWUURA is our camp property near Young, AZ that provides a religious, educational, and spiritual center for members and friends of Unitarian Universalist congregations.
We are hoping to have members of our congregation join us on this trip.
Prior to covid, SAWUURA often hosted 50-100 people for Memorial and Labor Day weekends. The property features an outdoor kitchen, ramada, composting toilets, potable water, and plenty of space to camp. There are campfires with music in the evenings, and outdoor games and activities during the day. A high-clearance vehicles is needed to access the camp. More information about the location is at SAWUURA.org.
We will be meeting in the Sanctuary after Coffee Hour on Sunday, May 5, to discuss the May camping trip to the UU “SAWUURA” campsite. If you are interested in learning more about the trip that is happening on Memorial Day weekend please take time to join us. The camping event is open to all UUCP members.
