Welcome to our August newsletter! We had an incredibly successful Camp season and it wouldn't be possible without you! Thank you!
August is here and Fall Family Camp is near! Our leadership team has been working hard and we can't wait to make memories! Here is your August volunteer newsletter. In this issue, you'll see a quick update about camp, what is happening at Hidden Paradise, as well as upcoming volunteer opportunities and CRG events.

It's been an incredible summer season! Lots of new friends and people this year! Hummingbirds are everywhere and a couple of baby deer frequent the property. Our friendly neighborhood moose hasn't been spotted since earlier this year. I'm looking forward to more sneaky bacon moments and people to sniff in September! |
