Philanthropy Thank you to our campership donors! Campers and staff alike were delighted to return to resident camp this summer after it was closed last year due to COVID. 116 girls were able to attend, thanks to our generous donors who gave to our campership fund. Camperships cover some or all of the cost of resident camp, so that more girls have the opportunity to experience the joy and benefits of being in the outdoors. Here are some of the comments we received from our campership recipients: "I had so much fun at camp. We went on a hike to a different campsite. It was a long walk through the forest. When we got there we made dinner and dessert. We gathered sticks to make a fire to cook our dinner. The dessert was kind of like banana boats. We slept at our new campsite. The cabin was as big as a living room. It was one of the most fun things ever." "It was fun to let everyone know it's ok to be themselves." "I had an amazing time, everyone was nice and funny plus I felt safe. Everything was amazing." "I learned to make better connections with other people, and I learned how to do riflery." "Something I learned was how to challenge yourself." "I learned that you don't stand on a soccer ball without holding onto something stable."

Letter lost at camp
This summer 1,073 girls enjoyed resident camp, having fun while gaining a sense of confidence and independence. This letter was simply addressed to “Mom”, but our dedicated camp counselors quickly identified this lucky lady and made sure she received it!
