I was there too. I just wanted to take a moment to thank all of the people who helped to organize this amazing weekend. The campers were wonderful, the experience was awesome. All the kids were so lovely— and they could not have been better looked after by a more terrific group of amazing people.

I will be back to help out in every way I can.
