BRANA 39 – Speakers Needed

We are looking for speakers who carry a strong NA message and can share their experience, strength and hope on the 12 Steps, sponsorship, service work, their relationship with a Higher Power and the miracle of one addict helping another.

BRANA Campout does not pay travel expenses, lodging or in any way compensate any individual that speaks at our events. We feel that the message of recovery should be one that is given freely. We are consistent in that policy as it also pertains to speaker recordings, offering them as a free download on our site.

Online Registration Activated- 39th Annual Campout

Online registration for the 39th Annual BRANA Campout – The Promise of Freedom – has been activated.

The 39th Annual BRANA Campout will be held on July 17 –19, 2020 at Natural Chimneys Campground in Mount Solon, VA (map).

Online registration is $60 per person (children are free).

We regret that the fee has increased by $10 for the weekend from last year. We have faced increasing lease fees (we lease the entire campground and stage) over the last 3 years and need to make this change to cover our costs and ensure that the event goes forward in the future.
