Authentic relationships are part of our DNA here at Glorieta. There’s nothing quite like escaping to the mountains or soaring down a high-speed zipline tandem to bring people closer together. But authentic relationships are built in everyday moments, too … including one you can easily bring home and try around your own dining room table. That’s what we want to share with you today!

Connecting in

the Dining Hall

Napkin holders. Simple, humble, ordinary. Yet they’re part of every meal at camp.

At Glorieta, we choose conversation prompts, trivia, and puzzles to place in our napkin holders at the start of each summer. We want these to be small (yet intentional) invitations for campers to connect with each other daily. 

Bring it to Your Table

At the time of this writing, Thanksgiving is around the corner. So consider this your official invitation to celebrate gratitude and connection, camp-style! Below are some of our favorite table conversation prompts we put in napkin holders this year, edited for Thanksgiving (or other fall gatherings). Bring these to your table for a little bit of extra fun and connection. Screenshot, print, bookmark … whatever floats your boat! It’s our hope that these questions spark engaging conversations around your table.
