  2. Hey guys. I"m glad you liked the posts this week. No need to bring money to camp. There isn't a store. Also, you'll get to eat as much as you'd like. I think you will find a few things that you will be able to take from camp at no cost. For instance, everyone will get their own camp journal. It's going to be lots of fun!
