Camp Onas Strategic Plan
2026-2030
Camp Onas enters 2026 with deep gratitude for its history and a commitment to its future. Developed by the Board of Directors in partnership with staff, and guided by our mission, vision, and values, this Strategic Plan offers a clear framework for direction and decision-making through 2030.
The priorities outlined here reflect what has long made Camp Onas distinctive: strong community, respect for people and the Earth, and thoughtful stewardship of the resources entrusted to our care. They grow out of the relationships, values, and practices that shape our community and guide our work.
