“greatest place on the planet” — sophie markham

“Where do I begin on how incredible this camp is and how it will change your child’s life?! My daughter is spending her second summer there now, and I am a former camper/ counselor so I can really speak to the magic first hand. After sorting through some old school junk (3rd grade), I stumbled across this persuasive essay, which says it all ❤️” — Caroline Greenwood
