How has camp impacted you?
– NSC truly is my home away from home. I have spent more than a full
year of my life there (71 weeks to be exact) and I keep going back
because it is a place where I know that I can be myself. I feel safe to
have fun at North Star in a way that only an isolated all-boys camp in
Northern Wisconsin can offer.
