Camp Ondessonk Organizers want you to know why treehouse camping is the best way to go for TOCO 2009:
"The Tree-Houses are located intentionally in very rugged and nature-based places to immerse campers and visitors directly in their natural surroundings.The majority of our Units are built as Tree-House units because it's just really cool, but more importantly, it is intended to reduce the human-caused impact directly surrounding them. We take ecological responsibility very seriously, and though it is extremely challenging due to the sheer number of people that enjoy this place each year, we do actively take steps to try to minimize our foot print on the Earth as much as we can control."

"TOCO has given me purpose and has show me, in the words of a church sign i saw recently, 'People are not my problem: they are my purpose.' I am a better person because of the things I've experienced through TOCO." -Kim Vrooman~Festival Founder

The 8th Annual TOCO FAMILY FESTIVAL & CAMP OUT will be hosted in the Shawnee Forest at Camp Ondessonk on September 11th & 12th 2009.
This camp is amazing! www.ondessonk.com. Just 2 hours from St. Louis:Everyone camps in tree houses or tents. There are nice lakes for swimming & canoeing, and we've got a great music line-up spanning the genres preforming outside during the day at the Acoustic Stage on the Patio and the Waterside Grotto Stage down by the swimming lake. At night, the music moves inside to a giant screened in lodge for the comfort of all. There will be lots for the kids to including activities galore in the Kids Play Party Zone, and just added, Pony Rides! There is plenty to do and plenty of fun activities for the adults as well! Join Us Won't You!
For charitable & educational purposes, TOCO (Tapestry of Community Offerings) arranges family themed events; sets up scholarships, and also reuses, recycles, and resells used items in order to raise awareness, funds, & support for the community at large and specifically for families and children in need.
TOCO ALSO EXTENDS FAR BEYOND ANY FESTIVAL OR ANY PARTICULAR YEAR. TOCO LOOKS TOWARD THE GOAL OF A PERMANENT FULL TIME RETAIL/RESALE/OFFICE SPACE THAT WILL WORK TO OFFER HOPE AND OUTREACH TO CHILDREN and FAMILIES IN SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES.
