 of 1:5 and opportunities for older campers at age 14 to be CIT’s, counselors in training
There is a perspective of the location as being very magical and is fondly etched in many campers minds and is there go to place when needing to de-stress.
United Way has many projects at the Camp this year and Billie also mentioned other organizations that have helped the camp in the past.  
C&S helped with fixing some roofing and also gave a grant for composting and planting.
Billie is hoping anyone with experiences to contact her to help fill in gaps in the Archives and history of the camp. Carmen mentioned that her 10 year old cousin was planning to go for the day and asked to stay for the overnight session. When she returned she mentioned that there was no mirrors. They focus on who they really are and not what they look like.
