Welcome Home, Skyline Alumni!
Skyline is 60 years old now, and we feel like it’s time to celebrate our history and what unites us.
Were you a camper? A counselor? Did you work on the land at Skyline, or in the kitchen? Were you part of a FOCUS or other retreat? Did you first come to family camp?
If you have walked a trail, eaten a meal, made art, picked a berry – if you visited us for any reason, you are part of Skyline's story that has shaped so many lives.
After 60+ years, we're not just looking back. We're building forward. And we need you!
Stay Connected
Sign up for our alumni newsletter by filling out this SURVEY to get updates on camp happenings, alumni gatherings, ways to plug in, and stories from the Skyline community. Whether you're in Michigan or across the globe, this is your way back to camp.
Our intention is that we can reconnect in various ways over years to come. The first step is to get connected!
Save the Date: September 25-27, 2026
This fall, we are hosting our first major alumni gathering – the Campfire 5K Alumni Weekend – part reunion, part 5K (if you’d like), part excuse to come back to the place that shaped us.
The weekend includes:
Saturday morning 5K (walk, run, or volunteer)
Alumni work project
Free time for goat walks, archery, hiking, or just being
Camp-provided meals
Decade photo sessions
Livestreamed campfire Saturday evening (join in person or virtually)
Can't make it in person? Watch the campfire live, submit song requests, send video messages. We're building this to include everyone.
Details and registration coming spring 2026. Mark your calendars now!
Ways to Get Involved
Skyline needs more than nostalgia – we need hands, expertise, and time from people who want to help us make it to 100 years.
We're looking for alumni to join committees (most meet virtually):
Sales & marketing
Donor relations
Grant writing
Event planning
And more
Not a committee person?
Join us for Spring Volunteer Weekend
Support our brick campaign to pave the way forward
Share your Skyline story and photos (see below)
Ready to jump in? Fill out our alumni survey to let us know your interests, stay connected, and indicate if you'd like to join a committee.
Share Your Skyline Story
We're always building Skyline's archive – in words and images – and need your help!
Again, take our alumni survey to share your Skyline story: when you were here, what you did, what moments stuck with you, and how you'd like to stay connected.
Share your photos from your time at Skyline. In March 2025, our "60 Years and Counting" event brought together decades of alumni – the stories and photos shared that night reminded us just how much history lives in our collective memory. Now we want to capture it.
How to Share Photos
We've created alumni photo albums on Skyline's SmugMug account organized by decade. Find your era below and upload your photos directly:
Once uploaded, you can add comments to individual photos. Have printed photos? Scan them or use the Google PhotoScan app to digitize them.
Please note:
These photos will be publicly accessible – only post what you're comfortable sharing.
By posting, you give permission for photos to be used on Skyline's website, social media, or print materials.
