MMG

What's Next!

The pandemic has ended, and we have returned to in-person gatherings! To maintain safety, we ask everyone to take an at-home COVID-19 antigen test on the morning of our first day. We don't need to see the test. You will be on the honor system to only come if you have tested negative. We no longer ask that you show proof of vaccination.

The Joslin campground is still closed to outside rentals for 2024. We are happy to announce that we will continue MMG at the Clara Barton Conference Center!

Messages from our Memory Book

One of the best things about MMG is that it allows me to talk about issues and ideas I wouldn’t allow into ordinary consciousness. – Joe T.

Thanks to you all for making a new guy feel so welcome and comfortable! – Ken E.

This was my first weekend. I did things (singing, dancing) that I ordinarily wouldn’t have done. – Mike H.

What I learned about myself will spill over into my relationship at home. And I came here believing I was an open guy! – Mike H.

My second MMG experience was touching on a number of levels.

The key is the quality of the men who seem to check their coats of armor in their vehicles in the parking lot.

This was my third time at MMG. The first two opened my eyes to issues I was confronting in life. – Gerry L.

I leave with an understanding of what I need to do until I come back next year. – Gerry L.

I find myself laughing more at MMG than in any other setting. And I am more willing to cry openly.

Dear Charlie, Remember you need to go to MMG! – Charlie B.

Why is it that MMG we are more playful with, and yet more respectful of other men?

The weekend was more than I expected: friendship, support, fun, education, and great food!

Thank you all for setting me back on my path! – Dave S.

Deep, sweet gratitude for men who speak and listen from the heart, sharing knowledge, stories and insecurities. – Will

What a great time! It seemed to pass so quickly. To digest it all will take a while. I feel real good, happy and serene. – Bill K.

The healing that I received this weekend is profound. – Arthur

MMG is growing inside me, and I am growing inside MMG

For the first time in my life, I had someone-several men, actually – to talk to about my feelings and problems.

Embers of friendship have warmed the cold pains of my marriage problems.

Je ne trouve pas l’equivalent dans mon pays, peut-etre parc que MMG est tres unique.

I have never had the courage to ask for male friendship until now.

My comfort zone gets challenged here, but the atmosphere is safe.

Laughter and the drone of men’s conversations in the dining hall = music to my heart!

Men are so beautiful! – Jonathan

When I walked through the doors the first time, I was accepted right away. – Kevin H.

The more time I spend at MMG, the better I am at keeping my heart open all the time.
