Duke Youth Academy welcomes all DYA alumni to the annual reunion at Camp Chestnut Ridge in Efland, N.C.
Alumni will reconsider the meaning and purposes of practices and rhythms of Duke Youth Academy, The goal is to consider the questions, “How does God speak to me and to others through spiritual disciplines?” and “How is God glorified in my discipline?”
