​🌲 Camp Collective: Women's Leadership Retreat hosted by The Collective at CNYWN

​September 11–14, 2025 | Great Camp Sagamore, Raquette Lake, NY

​Camp Collective is an all-inclusive, 3-night retreat hosted by The Collective by CNY Women's Network.

​It's giving full summer sleepaway camp nostalgia—just with better food, deeper conversations, and leadership development workshops.

​This is the ultimate reset in nature for ambitious, growth-minded women who crave community, nature, and that magical feeling of summer camp—reimagined for the leaders we are now and for those stepping into leadership.

​Through hands-on leadership and personal-growth workshops and classic camp experiences—from paddling on the water to fireside conversations—you’ll invest in your growth and build lifelong connections.

​This experience is brought to you by The Collective by CNY Women's Network—our membership community for women across Central New York. Want more opportunities like this? Become a member of The Collective and keep growing with us.
