The Milky Way is our nightlight.

When I first toured Adirondack Camp with my family, I had no intention to become a camper. At that point, this six year old was just happy to have a month at home with her parents all to herself. Rikki, the Director of Admissions, gave the tour. We were on our way back from Spider Rock when I caught up with Rikki. I put my little hand in hers and asked, ‘How old do you have to be to go here?’ She responded with ‘seven.’ I immediately turned and looked back at my parents exclaiming, ‘I’ll be seven this summer!’ I am now seventeen and have gone every summer since.
