[Njabs-talk] Camp Marcella Announcement

[Serena]

I'm glad that Camp Marcella is back!  Only thing is, is it really realistic 
for parents to pay money for their kids to go to camp?  I don't remember my 
parents having to pay anything when I went there.  That's awesome that Phil 
will be back as director when the blind kids are there ... He's a really 
great guy!
