The Lisle Fellowship will operate four units this summer--in California, Colorado, Colorade, Michigas and Connecticut. Men at the camps participate in the usual summer activities, such as hiking and athletics, and divide all work on a co-operative basis.

In addition to lectures and formal discussion groups, the summer program centers around "team visits" to cities and towns within several hundred miles of the camp.
