This is my favorite place in the world. I went here for six years during the summer for diabetes camp (AKA Camp Morris) I met people here who I’ll know for the rest of my life and it overjoys me to help the younger kids connect and realize they aren’t alone with this disease.

I went for a Becoming an Outdoors Woman event. Beautiful grounds, staff (young people doing service work). NC Wildlife Officers and Volunteers were awesome, informative and patient.
Having young people on grounds for a church retreat was an added bonus!
Safe, peaceful, spirit filled environment!
