Welcome Allison Brannon!

We are excited to welcome Allison Brannan as a Group Sales Specialist at Warm Beach Camp Ministries!

Allison grew up in Kent, Washington, and graduated from Thomas Edison State University with a bachelor’s in liberal studies.

She worked part-time from 2008 to 2016 in the Equestrian Program at Camp Berachah. During that time, Allison assisted with therapeutic lessons, led trail rides, became a CHA-certified instructor, and taught Western and English lessons. Camp Berchah became Black Diamond Camp (a Warm Beach Camp Ministries campus), and from March 2016 to November 2023, Allison worked full-time as a Guest Services Event Coordinator.

With her recent transition to a Group Sales Specialist position, Allison looks forward to meeting with potential group leaders to promote and share the opportunities at Camp. When asked what she is most excited about, she said, “There are many factors that come into play for a retreat to happen for a group, and having the opportunity to use my experience and knowledge of Camp to help leaders see our facility and start that initial planning process is always a highlight.”

When not at work, Allison loves hiking with friends, walking her dog, or finding a scenic view. She also enjoys quiet days at home, surrounded by friends. Welcome, Allison; we are glad that you are here!

And slowly, quietly… it began to change ...

It is our opportunity to pause, gather, and say from the bottom of our hearts: Thank you! On Sunday, May 17, 2026, Warm Beach Camp will ...

A Therapeutic Experience

Each summer, Warm Beach Camp has the privilege of welcoming teens and adults who have intellectual and developmental disabilities to Camp SunSparrow to attend a week of Day Camp. During this time, they have fun, make friends, and gain new and impactful life skills and experiences. Amidst the busyness of the summer months, one activity that stands out is the thoughtfully coordinated horse encounter, which is brought by Warm Beach Horsemanship team members one afternoon a week. This activity has ...
