NANA Camp Experience

One of the major forums by which we have been able to gather together is the annual camp, simply referred to as NANA Camp. This has been held in the different parts of the US from year to year. NANA Camp is always a wonderful experience, the last camp brought together about 300 of us from East Coast to West Coast, and also some visitors from Nigeria, and England.

Our youth have benefited extensively from the establishment of NANA. Besides learning so much about their cultural heritage, they also get to know each other. No sooner one camp has ended, they start looking forward to the next.

Sure, this year promises many wonderful experiences. We look forward to seeing you and your whole family there in Texas. Come with your friends.

A few of the Camp programs this year include:

  • The Camp Fire
  • A Talent Show
  • Musical Concert
  • and all the regulars
