Camp John Marc is grateful for each of you and for your love of Camp. Like the Wall of Gratitude in the Medical Building at Camp, this Wall of Gratitude is a place where you can share what you are grateful for or give a shout-out to your camp or medical team.

I am thankful for this experience of online camp. Because camp is more than a place it's a community of people who are empathetic towards one another, camp is a community of people who are strong and so much more.
