Camp Jenée is held at the Fort Wayne YMCA Camp Potawotami near South Milford, IN. The retreat takes place in a large conference cabin that is heated and air-conditioned. The participants stay in group rooms with 10 bunk beds per room. Rarely do we use any top bunks for our retreat. The restrooms are across the hall from the group rooms.
Participants do need to bring their own bed linens, towels and personal items. A list of things to bring is included in the confirmation packet sent to participants when their registration is confirmed.
In the conference cabin there is a large meeting room where most of our general sessions are held. There is also a kitchen area for snacks and water.
Meals are served in the main dining hall near the conference cabin. Meals, prepared by the YMCA camp staff, are nutritious and tasty. Snacks and water are always available in the conference cabin. If someone requires a special diet, they are encouraged to bring their items with them, clearly marked with their name. They are responsible for their own preparation if needed.
All areas of the camp are handicap-accessible. Because we do move around camp, we provide golf carts driven by staff members to help participants who may find it difficult to walk round the camp.
There are staff members that also stay in the conference cabin who are available to help participants at any time. This includes two oncology trained nurses available to help with medications, injections, dressing changes, or whatever is needed.
