2023 Men’s Spring Hike
Oconee State Park
The Men of Saint James
In a Multi-Church Event
Join your brothers from churches around Charleston in Oconee State Park for four days of camping, hiking, fellowship and spiritual growth. The hike will be a Kings Camp format, with a short to medium hike in to the campsite, then longer day-hikes out and back. This is a great trip for guys that do not have much experience camping or if it has ‘been awhile.’
We have some loaner gear as well!
Location: Oconne State Park
We have reserved several tent-pads at the Park — about a 20 minute hike into the campsite from the Parking Lot. This will be a Kings-Camp style hike: setup camp once, and do day hikes out and back.
