To Mom and Dad

I want to insert a little post here to let Manon's mom and dad know that she is here safely and enjoying herself with friends.

Manon (on the left) lives near Paris, France. She came last summer as a camper and this summer she joins us as a Counselor in Training. Her friendship has enriched our lives because she is genuine, caring, creative, and sincerely happy at Sprucelands.

We are happy to have campers from around the globe. Sprucelands is an awesome joining of many cultures. Two additional French campers join us during the last session of camp, and for six weeks we have a Romanian camper that will bring a whole new perspective into the Sprucelands experience. She will be joined by two siblings, so we are excited about making these new friends.

Often we talk about the Sprucelands Spirit. More than anything it is a connection with each other that is priceless. You'll hear me talk about it across the summer. It is a connection that both recognizes and celebrates the uniqueness in each person. To realize that we can join hearts around the world is phenomenal, and who knows, maybe together we will all make a difference.
