The Warmth of Project Linus

 

Monday night was the introduction to camp. New campers always receive a new handmade quilt provided to us by Project Linus. The members of this organization work tirelessly to provide soft, colorful quilts for our children. These quilts immediately become prize possessions for our campers. They encircle themselves in their quilts and
their eyes glow with the physical and emotional warmth it brings to them, along with an ear to ear bright smile. These quilts are not esteemed just at camp. Our Dean of Women will visit some of the graduates of our camps in their homes and center stage in their rooms are the quilts they have received during their time at camp. If you’d like to read more about project you can find their web site by clicking here. For our part, we’d like to thank Project Linus, once again, for the hard work and beautiful quilts.
