Welcome to the Blog!

Hello to everyone in Blog-land!
I'm Seth, and in just a few weeks I'll be joining a team of amazing, courageous, talented, compassionate volunteers on a journey to South Florida where we will encounter a new community and create a camp experience for middle school and high school students involving drama, music, dance, visual art, creative writing, fun, love... and so much more.

  3. Hi team. I just wanted to stop by and thank you all for your tremendous efforts down in Homestead. You all are doing something quite phenomenal and the youth you are doing this for will be forever changed. The light that you have shined will be the one that guides them to their future. Thank you so much.
