As an alternative to the Annual Fall Banquet and Silent Auction, CJAMM will be hosting a unique virtual CJAMM SHOWCASE this year…with presentation of the Stan Basler Award and Volunteer of the Year along with features from Exodus House-Tulsa, Exodus House-Oklahoma City, and New Day Camp.

New Day Camp Cancelled
It’s a sad day for the deans, staff, and volunteers who participate in the New Day Camp…but because of safety concerns, CJAMM has decided to cancel New Day Camp this year.
We’ve heard from some of the campers, too. They are disappointed as this is one time during the year that kids can be kids…and have a safe place to share their thoughts, feelings, concerns, and worries.

For those who have paid for sponsorship for a child, those funds will remain in the camp account until we can use them to sponsor a child for camp.
